Whirlpool calypso takes very long

Not sure but I think it is normal, not even sure it is a countdown timer - illustration shows just a single large knob which presumably is the main programme selector, which is basically an electric clock that keeps pausing whenever the washer is busy filling, heating, etc. and moving on when it is time for the next function.

Modern cold fill, water economy washers tend to take much longer to complete a cycle with the shortest programmes taking more than an hour...

YOUR DRYER IS DEFECTIVE.

When was the last time you updated the GPS firmware?
Sounds like that is the problem.

I've just fixed a very similar problem with a 10-yr-old NEC microwave oven.

Disconnect AC power, take the top cover off, go through the unit and tighten all screws, particularly those connecting ground wires to the chassis and those fixing major components like the power transformer and magnetron to the chassis.

Take the minute hand off and turn hand over. There is a brass bushing that attaches to the aluminum hand. Take a small screw driver and place in the square hole of the brass bushing. Turn either direction and test on the minute post of the clock. Keep adjusting until the clock chimes right on the 1/4 hour position. Make sure to put the hand back on the right 1/4 hour.
