Timer was worm out and failed to work properly.

After unplugging the washer and removing the drain line I was able to pull the washer away from the wall. This provided access the top of the washer. On top of the washer machine I removed four philips screws which released the control panel. From the control panel I removed a lock washer from the timer stem, which permitt the knobs to be removed and exposed the two nutscrews which hold the timer in place. I removed the wiring harness plug from the timer and then the two nutscrews and the timer was free from the control panel.

This entire process was reversed for assembly of the new timer.

The washer is running like a new one now.
