Cynthia L February 06, 2014 for Model Number Whirilpool LSQ7533JTO My washer appears to be operating normally except the water never drains from the tub after filling. Is this a problem with the timer or some other malfunction?
1 Answer Hello Cynthia. If the unit does not go into spin cycle, you will need to check and see if the lid switch is bad and needs to be replaced on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
1 Answer Hello Linda. If you can stop the water from entering the machine by turning off the timer or unplugging the unit, you will need to look for a bad pressure hose or replace the pressure switch. If the only way to shut off the water is at the shut off for the water hoses, you will need to replace the water valve in the unit. Read More...

Tom November 30, 2012 I know I need part number 3953321 but does it come with a new shaft for the timer knob?
Carol D August 13, 2012 for Model Number lsq8543jqo Our whirlpool washer does fine on the normal setting: washes, drains, spins. But on Casual setting it fills, washes, drains, fills again and does all the same stuff over and over for hours. Is this indicative of a timer problem or something else?
1 Answer Hello Carol. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the timer WP3953321 is bad and will need to be replaced in the unit. If the timer works fine in some settings and won't work in other settings, you need to replace the timer. Read More...
Chick February 14, 2012 for Model Number Whirlpool 3953321 When the tub spins and drains the water it started to make a noise. It sound like its in the motor.
1 Answer Chick, the noise could be due to a damaged motor drive coupler or article in the pump. You'll need to remove the cabinet, the motor and the pump and check them for damage and operation. "ACCESSING COMPONENTS INSIDE THE WASHER CABINET Components inside the washer cabinet can be accessed by completely removing the outer cabinet as one unit. 1. Remove the console mounting screws and tilt the console into the service position. 2. Unplug the lid switch harness connector from the receptacle in the washer top. 3. Remove the cabinet mounting clips by placing the flat blade of a screwdriver in the clip and press down and towards the front to release the clip. 4. Remove the cabinet by tilting it forward and pulling it away from the washer. 5. The rear panel can be tilted back for additional access to components at rear. Servicing Components in the Console 1. Remove the two Phillips-head screws securing the front corners of the console to the washer top. the two screws could also be located on the back side of the end caps. 2. Tip the console back on the hinges that secure the top of the console to the washer back." Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
Jim January 29, 2012 for Model Number LSQ8243HQ0 Our washer is skipping the drain cycle after washing cycle and also is skipping the rinse cycle. Once the timer gets the rinse drain cycle, it works fine. I suspect the timer, your thoughts?
1 Answer Hello Jim. Make sure the water valve is working properly. If so, you will need to replace the timer WP3953553 on the unit. Hope this helps. Read More...
Roy December 15, 2011 for Model Number LSQ8243HQ0 Hi, why would my washer load and wash but after washing does nothing else. The timer goes silent. If i move dial to rinse it will rinse but doesn't pump out or spin also with lid open the washer will wash. What do you think is the problem?
1 Answer Hello Roy. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the lid switch 3949247V is bad in the unit. Check and see if it is broke or bad. If so, it will cause the unit not to drain or spin. Hope this helps. Read More...
