ET005 Universal 5-Wire Washing Machine Timer 15 Minutes
The ET005 washing machine timer is a universal mechanical wash timer with five electrical terminals, built to control the wash cycle duration in semi-automatic twin-tub washing machines, with a maximum cycle time of 15 minutes. This model is a popular replacement for failed timers across a wide range of semi-automatic washers, since a 5-wire design covers a larger category of control circuits used in this type of washer compared to simpler 3-wire timers.
The ET005 timer comes with a durable white plastic housing and a straight metal control shaft (not an angled one), plus standard top and bottom mounting screws that make replacement straightforward. Being a “universal” model, meaning a standard design compatible across several brands, it’s a practical choice for repair technicians who need a readily available part covering a large share of recurring repair requests.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What’s the difference between the ET005 (5-wire) and the ET004 timer?
Both are 15-minute wash timers from the same family, but they differ in electrical terminal count and wiring, please match the actual terminal count on your old timer against the product before ordering.
Q2. What does “universal” mean for this timer?
It means its standard design (5 wires, straight shaft) covers a wide range of semi-automatic washer models rather than being limited to a single brand or model.
Q3. How do I know the correct terminal count for my washer’s timer?
Open the front control panel and count the wires connected directly to the old timer, or send a clear photo to our technical team to confirm before ordering.
Q4. Does this timer fit all semi-automatic washing machines?
It fits washers with a maximum 15-minute wash cycle, a matching 5-wire terminal count, and a straight shaft. It doesn’t fit fully automatic washers or those with digital electronic timers.
Q5. Can I install the timer myself without a technician?
Yes, installation is relatively straightforward for anyone with basic home electrical wiring experience, but photographing the old wiring layout before disconnecting anything is recommended.
