I read online that this could possibly be caused by the air dome sending an incorrect water level reading to the timer. Is that true?

Gary,
This is true. For the repair you’d need the Tub Assembly (8066082) and the Center Post Gasket (383727). I’ll try and give you some detailed instructions for this below.

Unplug washer or disconnect power. Unplug the lid switch, remove top, and set aside. Remove the two front panel screws and lift the front panel straight up to remove. Remove the agitator cap, barrier cap, and 7/16″ bolt. Unsnap and remove tub ring next, lay over side panel. Remove back splash and then remove the two 5/16″ bolts that attach the top. Slide the entire top forward gently and lift the back a little to make sure you don’t catch the red retainer clips. Unplug the washer motor harness and unscrew the ground wire. Remove the two lower plate bolts (1/2″). Unplug the pressure hose and remove from the tub. Slide the base assembly out. Then remove the basket and the drive block. Remove drain hose and upper clamp and slide off the tub port. Remove the counterbalance spring located towards the rear of the tub and remove the 6 tub screws.

use dish soap or rinse aid on the new Center Post Gasket to help insert into the new tub assembly. Ensure that the seal is inserted correctly. Reassemble the washer. Ensure all the connections are made, then run a cycle to verify it’s working properly with no leaks.
