Dishwasher timer not working.
Our older dishwasher would get hung up and not proceed to its next wash cycle. I removed the power to the unit took it apart to inspect. I figured it was somthing to do with the timer. I unhooked the power connection to the motor for the timer. I then plugged the unit back in and checked voltage to the timer motor. I had power at the connection. I then plugged the connection back into the timer motor. The timer motor still did not function. I went online looking for parts and found this site www.partselect.com. All the parts needed to make repairs were listed and good pictures showing the parts I needed. The part was recived a couple days later. I installed the new timer plugged the unit it and it works great now. I even purched a couple other parts to make the unit good as new.

Timer would not allow water to unit
Disconnected power to dishwasher removed the seven screws that hold inside liner to door, and placed liner to the side. Disconnected power leads to timer then removed the two screws that held the timer in place. Installed new timer in revers order. Also replaced the door gasket, one door liner screw, and the vent pad. The most difficult part was keeping the door latch mechanisim in place when reinstalling the door liner.
Timer - (easy): Turn off power for unit at breaker box. Open the front door and remove the screws holding the front cover. Locate timer. Unplug timer and remove screws holding timer in place. Reverse process to install new timer.
Drain solenoid - (a little harder): Turn off water to dishwasher under sink and disconnect from plumbing. Disconnect drain line. Remove any screws holding dishwasher in place and start pulling unit from it's cavity. It should come about half way out. At this time you can peer under the unit and see the drain solenoid.
If you don't know what you're doing (like me) I recommend the following. Remove the water line from the dishwasher (and possibly the drain line) It should now be easy to pull the unit all the way out and tip it on it's side, fully exposing the drain solenoid.
Note: The drain solenoid provided to me was encapsulated in a different bracket than the original one in my dishwasher unit. It was necessary to pry the solenoid out by bending the bracket and installing in the original bracket. Then squeeze back together in a vice with a few gentle love taps with a hammer to squeeze it all back together. It was still a little loose but the solenoid just goes up and down so no big deal.
There's a little metal clip holding the white plastic arm to the drain valve. Let's say this O represents the diameter of the metal rod it's hooked to. That clip is removed by a small screwdriver pushing the clip away from that rod, this way: 0 ==> It will make sense once you do it.
From there it's pretty easy to replace the solenoid unit and reverse the steps above to re-install the unit.
Won't drain,Won't fill, float switch good. After installing timer it worked once. decided to replace the whole dishwasher
Remove the back of the front panel. Replace timer held by 2 screws and 2 elec. connectors.

Old Timer stopped moving
My old timer stopped rotating. Ordered this one. It showed up and the part number is off by one digit. Put the new one in, and the timer rotates fine, however water is no longer coming into the dishwasher. Put the old timer back in and manually rotated it and water comes in no problem. So we figured the old timer's electrical motor is burned out, and the new timer's signaling function is probably a bit different.
Turns out the motor is really easy to remove, just pry the metal latch out a bit with a flat screwdriver and out it comes. We put the motor from the new timer on our old timer, and presto, everything works!
Like other reviewers said here, pop off the seven screws and the interior door panel comes right off. Disconnect the power plug, signal plug and ground plug and reverse the procedure. Really easy repair. Make sure you shut off the fuse panel before starting the repair.

I went to replace the timer mechanism due to the drain solenoid not kicking out and burning up. I was advised that the wd21x10013 timer mechanism was a direct replacement for the older part number. However after installing replacement part the plug in for the wd21x10013 timer is a rectangular plug. My dishwasher uses a square plug for the timer functions, motor, drain, etc. I cannot locate the original style timer mechanism. Can you help?
For model number GSD2200G02WW

Thanks for your question. We did a search with your model number and show that the timer for your model is part number PS260202. The part number wd21x10013 is not compatible with your machine per the manufacturer.
I hope this helps.

I have a super in my building who has installed dishwashers. Would he be able to replace the timer for me? (would it be a lot of work/difficult?) thanks!
For model number GSM2100ZZ0WH
Hello Christopher, Thank you for your inquiry. You need to remove the inside panel of the dishwasher door. Then remove the 2 screws holding the timer into place and disconnect it. Plug in the new timer, then re-attach the screws. Replace the inside front panel of the dishwasher. Hope this helps!
