Patrick for Model Number LSQ8243HQ0 I bought the Whirlpool Ultimate care II washer used with no information about it. I hooked up the water and ran it thru a wash cycle. The tub filled, the wash cycle worked, but then when it got to the rinse cycle it just stopped, it did not drain. I opened the lid a few times, then it started back up, drained and went into the rinse cycle, drained, then went into the spin cycle. I went thru the wash cycle again but, it stopped like it had before, with nothing happening for over 20 minutes. I tried to raise and lowered the door but this time nothing happen. I mention this to a repair man that was working on my freezer and he told my wife it would cost $125.00. I don’t remember what he said the part was. He never took a look at the washer. Can you tell me what part it might be? My son is a license electrician and he would install whatever part it is.
Answer Hello Patrick. You will need to check and see if the lid switch assembly 3949247V is bad. If so, it will cause the problems your having on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. It should read closed with the lid closed. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps.http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
