Kenmore Washer 110.28922790 - Neutral drain vs timer issue

[D66215]

My Kenmore 11028922790 has 2 issues and they show up differently depending on which wash type/temperature combination is set.

#1 On a hot/regular load, it agitates normally, then there's a pause for a minute or two, then neutral drain, but it stays in neutral through the whole spin.  I can force it to spin after draining by pushing the stop knob and pulling it out again. I understand this introduces the pause needed to disengage neutral drain and start spin.  It does this for both the wash and the rinse cycles.  My understanding is this is likely a timer issue because it's not pausing.

#2 On a cold/hang dry load, it agitates normally, then there's a pause for a minute or two, then during drain it starts to spin immediately with a full tub. It does this for both the wash and the rinse cycles. My understanding is this is likely a neutral drain issue and I need to replace that.

What I don't understand is why would the neutral drain work in scenario #1 but not in #2? Doesn't #1 prove that the neutral drain is functioning?

Thanks for any assistance.

For anyone that comes across this in the future - a new timer fixed all of these problems.
