Please don't mind the multiple on and off trippers. My question is: Where do I find the model # for my pump timer? Or how can I tell which model I have?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Where is Intermatic timer model# located?

There should be a label on the inside of the box cover.
If that's missing, there's a model number on the back of the timer mechanism. Push the tab up on the upper left and pull the timing mechanism out. Make sure power is off.

Looks like your label was removed.
You can remove the black cover plate and show the wires.

My Timer Is Not Turning On
Hi All, My Intermatic pool timer is not automatically turning on. I ordered a set of replacement trips and tried both the green and silver ones, but that didn't do anything. The timer itself works properly and the "OFF" trip is still working, but until I can fix the issue, I have to start my...

The Intermatic model number is determined by two things 120V or 240V control and 120V or 240V clock motor.
Look at the wiring it is controlling and look at the back at the voltage of the clock motor.

What is the incoming supply voltage?
You can pop out the mechanism and look at the clock to see the clock voltage.

A black and white feed supply usually means that the supply is 120 volts, however the way that the clock is wired is usually a 240 volt configuration.
You need to measure the incoming supply voltage.

I got a new one and am all set to install it when I notice the label says "Type 1 Indoor Use Only". I was going to replace the old one which is installed on an exterior wall next to the pool pump. Did I get the wrong one?
Remove the mechanism from the "indoor only" box and put it in the box outside. You only needed that mechanism. The small tab at the top of the mechanism will push up, releasing it from the mount.

T104 is indoor use only.
T104R is rain-resistant and can be used outdoors.
The only difference is the enclosure.

After realizing I got the right timer with the wrong enclosure, I decided to give a Wi-Fi timer a shot. The only thing that is different electrically, is that the Wi-Fi timer supports only a 30A inductive (general, non-resistive) load, while the mechanical supports a 40A inductive load. I don't think this is going to be an issue with my 1.5 HP pump, but just wanted to get someone else's thoughts on if the 30A limit would be an issue in any case (whether we think the Wi-Fi timer is a good or bad idea is a topic for another day 
).

On the orange box, if you drop down a couple lines you'll see the ratings for motors. At 240 volts, it's rated for up to 2 HP. You should be fine.
