I have an A208 Maytag that works well but the timer does not advance automatically.

I took the timer motor out to try to replace it first.

This has a small brass gear instead of the larger plastic ones I have seen.

The timer number is 2-4454-1. The motor is 28058

Does anyone know where to get a motor like this or if it can be fixed?

Does the motor run?

The motor is silent and the gear will not turn in either direction.

timer motor

the timer motor detaches from the gearbox bt turning the motor while holding the
gearbox-takes about 1/8 turn to unclip the motor,but i do not remember which
direction...Once seperated,you can oil the motor's rotor shaft-oil may have gotten
gummy,stopping rotation of the very low power timer motor.

I assume you have hooked the motor up directly to 120V AC?
