    Cathy,

    It sounds like the timer is probably causing your problem. If tapping on the timer knob or wiggling the timer knob causes it to temporarily work, then that usually is a good indicator the timer is bad. If you have an ohm meter or multimeter, you can make some checks on the timer to confirm that is the issue.
