Maytag washer MAH4000AWW timer will not advance. Washer will operate if I manually advance timer. Have changed timer, followed Drive System diagnostic test, the wax motor and control board were replaced a few yrs ago, and have looked for the obvious loose wires/connection.
Re: Maytag washer MAH4000AWW timer will not advance....
There is a motor inside the timer that turns the knob. the problem must be the replacement timer. was it a brand new timer from maytag or a 2nd hand? also double check your timer is connected correctly.

First you need to list the model number in order for me to figure out what type of washer it is then i can help you. The reason I ask is some Maytag Ensignia's come with electronic timers and some models have old style timers...
Try manually advancing timer . If washer starts , timer motor is bad or gets stuck , or water level switch is bad and not sending power to timer.
If washer doesn't start ,the lid switch is stuck not sending power to timer or god forbid, timer is shot.
In some models , lid switch controls everything which may be your problem .Try manually operating lid switch or jumping it with jumper wire.Or just replacing. Its' the easiest to fix and most likely problem.
It could be the motor control board not telling the motor to switch to its highest speed, but it could also be control board not telling the motor control board to activate, but it could also be in the timing circuit. What other indications are you getting? Take a look at the wiring diagrams for this machine on the referenced site.
Set the timer to any off position. Unplug the unit for 10 minutes. Plug it back in and try that. The worst thing you can do to a Maytag washer is advance the timer yourself...hope this helps.
Test the lid switch Test the timer control Test the centrifugal switch Test the water level switch Inspect the motor coupler Inspect the drive belt(belt drive only) Inspect under the washer for soot (clutch) Test the motor Inspect the pulley Test the transmission
Check this parts this are the some cause to not spinning.
