Para plate Timer

[crewchief97]

I reset the allotted time on a t24400 paraplate timer and now it won't shut off on the time thats programmed, runs past . Any ideas why?

Do you have your switches set right? Lets say you want it to run for 4 minutes and you have it set to start on 4 coins you set the timer for 60 seconds per coin.

If at any point you turned off all the time switches with the power on, you ruined the timer.

Randy that is exactly what I have it set for. This timer is on an air machine and has worked for years no problem, change the time and it stops working right.

Hummm , I'm sure at one time I shut all the switches off to start over but it started doing this before that.

If it was staying on before you ever did anything,

1) the timer is bad,
2) you should have mentioned that in your first post.

It sounds like a bad timer to me. Do you need another Paraplate timer, I think I might have one.
