Probably something along this lines would work.

T2 will have to have the capability of taking a pulse from the stop button to start the timing sequence, and not rely on the stop button to remain depressed. Some people call this a one shot timer.

You might need a reset pulse to T2 in your start circuit, depending on what type/brand relay you use in T2. My drawing was meant to be pretty generic.

you need to put CR-1 contact paralelled under the start button in wrung 1 and get that jumper from in between wrung 1 and wrung 2 out of there or the light and T1 will energize immediately, And the stop should be a push-pull

You don't need help, you need a quick answer so you can go out and drink.

what good is taking this course going to do if you have other people doing your homework for you ? just quit the course and when you decide to take it seriously and learn it, then take it.

This thread is a bit old, and the OP is long gone, but my drawing contained a purposeful error anyhow. The CR1 contacts to the light are not sealed, so the light will only flash on.

What do you mean by "sealed"? As in held that the standard 3-wire start/stop circuit accomplishes?

...And posters here think I'm rude. You shouldve added a timer that would countdown to a dead short.
