I am looking for a source to replace timer motors and silver contacts on a bunch of paragon 8025 24 hour timers.

Copy following link to identify timer:
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000

Paragon 4000 series uses X2772 tripper
Paragon is no longer making timers except for defrost times.
There is a new line of timers coming from China that looks identical to Paragon 4000, and uses same tripper. As a result this timer design and trippers could be around for years to come.

Replacement timer is Intermatic T104R 240Volt indoor outdoor enclosure, with replacement parts widely 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
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000

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.
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Paragon-4000-series.pdf

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

1) Paragon 4000 series uses X2772 tripper.

2) Internet search for tripper reveals some sources selling set of trippers for $50.
Paragon is no longer making timers or parts, except for defrost series timers.
4000 series is not a defrost timer, which explains high price for trippers.
Some sources might still have X2772 tripper at lower price.

3) Other companies are still manufacturing some Paragon timers for niche sales.
Certainly the Paragon line is still active although names and numbers will probably change over next few years.

4) I cannot specifically identify 4001-0g, and the 'g' suffix does not show in sell sheet
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Paragon-4000-24hr-7000-7day.pdf

5) Replacement timer for 4001-00 is Intermatic T101

4) Grainger and many other places sell T100 series replacement trippers and motors.
No worry about defunct product

Hello, here is a link for the user's manual.

The silver ones (bright) are for closing the contacts. The black (dark) are for opening the contacts.

As you probably know, Paragon is no longer making timers and parts except defrost timers.
4003-00 is not a defrost timer
4003-00 is DPST 120Volt timer 24-hour mechanical timer
Paragon timers and manuals
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html

Intermatic cross reference shows that T-103 is replacement for 4003-00
http://www.intermatic.com/customer%20service/competitive%20cross%20reference.aspx

http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T104-Intermatic-timer.html#T103
T-103 has 120Volt clock motor and can control 1 or 2 - 120V loads or 1 - 240Volt load

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.
Intermatic cross reference link:
http://www.intermatic.com/customer%20service/competitive%20cross%20reference.aspx
Lowes and Grainger and many other outlet sell T-104 240V timer.

5) How to wire T-104

Intermatic clock motors are everywhere, but Paragon and Tork clock motors are a mystery.
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#7000
Shows manuals and resources

According to Paragon accessory chart:
http://www.paragontimecontrols.com/parts_accessories.htm
7000 series 240V clock motor M3193-71
7000 series 120V clock motor M3099-00

7008-00 is listed as 120V clock motor
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Paragon-7000-series-manual.pdf

I cannot find M3099 120V clock motor on internet
Now Paragon has contact-us page for customer service:
http://www.paragontimecontrols.com/contact/default.aspx

I will also contact Paragon, and post results here if Paragon responds.

Paragon 4000 series timers are traditional electro-mechanical timers.
The dial rotates around like a clock as time passes
Black and silver tripper pins on attached to outer edge of dial.
Black tripper is Off
Silver tripper is ON
The tripper pins encounter a lever.
The On tripper pushes lever one direction, the Off tripper pushes lever opposite direction
Click manual override to switch lights by hand

To set current time, lift and rotate dial until current time lines up with black pointer.
Set your trippers on the dial next to the On and Off times you want.
Set silver tripper at 5:oo
Set black tripper at 11:oo
Minimum set time is 1 hour
