You probably need to replace your timer motor. It should look like this. Follow the link to one available on ebay.
You should verify that this is the right one for your A208. One of the many Maytag experts should chime in with more info. Good Luck CLICK HERE TO GO TO pdub's LINK on eBay |

To change the timer, unplug the machine, take 2 phillips head screws off the console top. That reveals the inner workings. Take the center cap off the timer knob, remove the small clip, and the knob and a spring will come off. Then remove the dial, and there are 2 screws that hold the timer in place. |

I wouldn't think your whole timer needs a rebuild if it just stopped advancing. It sounds like just the timer motor has gone bad. You can unscrew the timer motor from the timer body and just replace that part and it should cure your problem.
As far as a part number for the "other side of the pond" I think the people in your specific country would know where to look. Any local appliance repair shops in your area could direct you or perhaps even try to Google for the part in your area. By the way, what country are you in since your profile only says Texas??? |

Forgot to mention - the motor is a Kingston Model 60-1 3 Watt 1 RPM (in my case it is 240VAC-50Hz). |
