Faye for Model Number Sears Kenmore model 1108870120 I have a Kenmore 110.82870120 that does not drain before spinning. I had the clutch replaced and now told the timer needs to be replaced. Only Intermittently the last spin cycle doesn't work, just hums but I can push the button in and back out and it starts just fine or just turn the dial back around to spin and it's ok but I cannot sit and watch my machine during each load. I've read that if water doesn't drain before spinning then the gearcase needs to be replaced or the clutch will wear out quickly. Both the gearcase and the timer are expensive parts to replace.
Answer Hello Faye, The timer and gearcase issues sound reasonable from the problem description described. If the expense is too much all at once, you can replace the timer WP661549 first and the gearcase 3360629 a little further down the road. It is an important part of the repair, but it is not as crutial as the timer. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Saturday, January 7, 2017
