The time on my KA DW is stuck. Is there a way to fix it or do I need a new one?

Nick, it's doesn't move at all in its designed increments?  At what point in the cycle did it get stuck?  What happens when you hit Cancel Drain?

IT's simple, UNSTUCK IT.  

 

No, Bob has a point.  Check out what he is telling you.

 

 

Let us know your progress. Your machine has TWO timer motors me thinks.  See if one is bad?????

Stuck Timer On A Two Motor KA DW Timer

Hi Nick, is the main cam block stuck ?, or is the timer just not advancing through the normal cycle ?, it is also possible that the rapid advance motor has failed which can leave the cam block stuck in one position.

 

The timer motors are replaceable separately if we can see which timer motor you have, there were two different timer makers for timers for this model.

The rapid advance motor is the problem.

Fortunately I was able to free it up with a couple of light taps. We'll see how long that lasts.
Thanks for the replies.
