Directly after agitation stops, the washer should drain for 2 minutes without spinning. The motor must then pause for a few seconds and start again at which point it should start spinning while continuing to drain. If there is no pause of the motor, the timer is bad. You are pausing the motor by opening/closing the lid. Eric
