hi there, i have a t-max timer that once in a while just freezes. no buttons on it will work so i have to hit my breaker switch in my panel box to reset it. what would cause this to happen? i don't have it hooked up to a manager it is just a stand alone. do i need a new timer? thanks

Either the buttons are sticking or the power supply in bad and sending too much voltage to it overheating it.

How old is it and is it an old 1A or a 3A with flat buttons or a 3A with raised buttons?

Try a new power supply. 9-12 volts max. AC or DC 200mA min.
