How do i wire a Paragon 4001-00 timer? - Paragon 4001-00 24-hr Timer Control 120v Ac Cd101

1) Copy following links:
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000
http://waterheatertimer.org/images/Paragon-4000-series-wiring.jpg

2) 4003-0 is 120Volt timer so clock voltage is 120V
Timer can control 120V or 240V loads
Use diagram 3

3) Paragon is no longer making this timer or parts for timer.
If you purchased timer from ebay, then assume motor is bad or X2772 trippers are worn out.
Always buy new timers. Buy Intermatic and parts are easily available.

1) If circuit breaker is not tripped or shorted, then timer clock motor has probably gone bad.

2) Some places still sell paragon timers, depending on model number.
But model number given is for 240Volt timer.

3) The clock motor is not available that I can find.
Paragon is no longer making the 4000 series timers or parts

4) Model number given does not match wiring terminals shown in manual.
4014 is DPST 240Volt timer with 4 wiring terminals labeled 1 2 3 4.

5) Paragon 4000 series timer with terminals 1 2 3 is 120Volt timer.

6) Replace 120Volt timer with Intermatic T101 indoor timer or T101R outdoor timer.
Crossover wiring:
Paragon terminal 1 goes to Intermatic terminal 1
Paragon terminal 2 goes to Intermatic terminal 2
Paragon terminals 3 goes to Intermatic terminal A

Paragon 4004-71 is 240Volt timer
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#Paragon4000

1) If your trippers are worn down, the timer will not turn on and off
Google search for X2772 trippers.
2) If your timer dial is not rotating, then timer clock motor is bad.

3) According to e-mail I received from Paragon Nov 2010, Paragon is no longer making timers and parts, except for their line of defrost timers.
4004-71 is not a defrost timer, so it is no longer being made according to Paragon representative.

4) To change timer brands: Intermatic cross reference shows Paragon 4004-71 can be replaced with Intermatic T-104 timer.

Paragon 7000
Paragon 7005 is a heavy duty 7-day mechanical timer that can handle 4 loads. It is DPST. One of two wiring diagrams applies to this timer:
The question is the the timer clock motor is 120V or 240V?

Paragon EC 7000 is a 7-day digital timer with 16 set points per week
Manual for EC7000

Please re-post your questions as you start sorting out which timer you have.
Paragon is improving their site so there is less confusion over model numbers and functions. but information about the 7000 are still sketchy.

I don't find the Paragon 4004-20 listed in manual.
4004-71 is shown, and uses wiring diagram 3
4004-71B, M, S use wiring diagram 4
4004-06 uses wiring diagram 7
Your timer sounds like a 240V DPST
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Paragon-4000-24hr-7000-7day.pdf

Manual shows wiring diagrams, depending on how many screw terminals and loads you have, and voltage of clock motor and voltage of load.

4001 series timer is Paragon 120V mechanical timer.

1) To disable the timer, turn off circuit breaker and take wires off of the terminals. Put wire nut over each wire, and circuit will no longer operate.
2) If you want the circuit to operate without timer, then take wires off terminals. Twist black wires together and cover with wire nut. Twist white wires together and cover with wire nut.
3) Buy Intermatic T-101 timer to replace Paragon 4001 timer
