Tad for Model Number 110.29832801 The washing machine will fill with water and then stop. The agitation cycle does not start up, so the washing then continues to fill with water. I just replaced the switch that reads the pressure and it did not fix the issue. Could it be the timer? I tried to advance the switch to other parts of the cycle and nothing happens. I also took the motor off and then inspected the Main Drive motor switch and opened up the cover to find some burn marks. Seemed like things were making contacts. I cleaned the contacts with some light grit sandpaper and put it back together, but continue to have the issue. Any suggestions before I order a ton of parts to troubleshoot? Thanks!
Answer Tad, if the water level does not fill to the proper level within a few minutes, there would likely be an issue with the valve WPW10175893. However, if the water does not rise at all, the drain hose would need to be checked to see if it has settled into the standpipe more than 6-8" as this can cause a siphoning issue. In regards to the motor having burn marks, it is possible that there may be an issue occurring in the area of the burns and the process of elimination would be necessary. Once the fill issue has been identified, the next step would be to move the timer WPW10187167 to an agitation portion of the cycle and test for 120VAC at the blue wire at pin 36. If there is 120VAC, the next step would be to visually inspect the motor capacitor WP8572717 to identify if it has any indicators of failing. If not, the likely failure would be the motor WP661600.
