Robert August 24, 2011 for Model Number whirlpool model number LSQ9520LQ0 while running washer water level filled to correct level but agitation would not start then had a burning smell , could turn time past agitation and tub will spin out and rinse , is this the timer?
1 Answer Robert, You're on the right track, Yes based on your post the problem is most likely the timer, it would probably be a bad interior contact, not supplying all the voltage to the motor to start and turn the motor. But first check and makes sure there are no loose wire connections from the timer to the motor connectors. Good Luck Read More...
Willy July 28, 2011 for Model Number lsq9010lwo I started the washer on delicate cycle. It filled then did nothing.I then had a burnt smell from the top of the washer. I stopped it and turned the knob around now it will not start on any function. what do you suggest? any help is appreciated.
1 Answer Hi Willy. You will need to replace the lid switch part # is WP8054980. You can try to advance the timer to spin to remove the tub water(on some models) or then use your shop vac to remove the water. Thank you. Read More...

Jack June 11, 2011 for Model Number LSQ9544KQ0 Water fill but does not fill to level needed, could this be the timer?
1 Answer Hello Jack. When the washer fill up to a certain level but not to the desired level and advance the timer onward. The most common cause of this issue would be a pressure switch W10337780. This tells the timer when it's reached the level selected and advances the timer to the next cycle. Hope you find this information helpful! Read More...
Jack June 10, 2011 for Model Number LSQ9544KQ0 The water fills only a small amount on loads. Could the timer cause this? Everything works on cycle but we have low water levels.
1 Answer Hello Jack. Poor filling issues can be caused by a few things. First you may want to remove the hoses on the back of the washer and see if the metal screens inside the valves are clear of debris. If that is clear and you are getting proper pressure, you should then test your water valve. If it is not opening fully, it may cause low water levels. This part can be tested with a multi meter MA-DM1. I will include a link in this message to an article that details how to test various parts with a meter. I hope this helps! http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Rick May 16, 2011 for Model Number LSQ9520LQ0 Whirlpool washer went through wash cycle then stopped. Will not drain or spin.Could this be the timer? What would you suggest?
1 Answer Hello Rick. You will need to check the lid switch 3949247V and see if it is broke or bad. If so, it will prevent the washer from spinning and draining. It should read closed with the lid closed. You can test this with a multi-meter MA-DM1. 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...
Rick May 15, 2011 for Model Number LSQ9520LQ0 Washer goes through first wash cycle then stops. It won't drain water after that first cycle and makes no noise like motor running. Putting on rinse or spin cycle has no effect.
1 Answer Hello Rick. You will want to make sure it's not the lid switch 3949247V that it is not allowing the unit going into the spin cycle. You can test the wires that connect to the motor when it's in a spin cycle for voltage. If you are not getting power to the motor when in spin cycle, you will want to replace the timer WP3951702. Hope this helps! Read More...
Glenn May 12, 2011 for Model Number LSQ9500LQ0 My washer will fill water and stop to its proper level but will not turn to wash or agitate. While I'm waiting for it to turn, I can smell some burnt type of electrical. There are times after 4 or 5 minutes it will turn but you can here some cliking noise on the timer knob. Please let me know if I need to replace both, Lid Switch and the timer knob or what shall I do? About 7 months ago I had it check and the lid switch was replace but it work for that long and its happening again. Can the switch get bad that fast?
1 Answer Hello Glenn. You will need to test the lid switch 3949247V and see if it is bad. It should read closed with the lid closed and open with it open.
