Mike S August 10, 2016 for Model Number 110.28222700 With water temp. set at warm, water comes in warm for only 7 to ten seconds then turns cold to rest of fill. Small, med. or extra large loads. Cold setting good, hot setting good. Something not allowing it to run the whole cycle.
1 Answer Hello Mike. This model uses a water valve with a thermistor on it. It is common for one to do this on the warm cycle. The hot water comes in to break the soap down then the cold comes in to wash the clothes. Clothing cleans much better in cold water than it does in hot or warm water. If your sure the unit didn't do this before, then you may need to replace the temp switch. However, according to the manufacturer it is designed this way. Read More...
Bob November 09, 2014 for Model Number WTW5100SQ0 The washer cycles through to the spin part of the cycle then stops, you have to turn the timer slightly to get it to spin, then it finishes the cycle. is the timer bad? or could something else cause it to stop as I described.
1 Answer Bob, With being able to turn the timer and the unit go into the spin sounds like the contacts on the timer for the spin may be bad and sticking. This would require the timer to be replaced. Read More...
Brian September 26, 2014 for Model Number 110.28322700 Ok so im attempting to check the water inlet valve theres 2 bigger plugs and a smaller plug. The 2 bigger ones (bottom clear plug with a red/yellow wire and a white wire neither have power to them) (middle plug red one have a white wire no power and a black wire with power) and finally the top plug smaller one which is white with a yellow/red wire with no power and a yellow/black wire with power so can you guide me further please and thank you
1 Answer Hello Brian. It depends on the temp setting of the cycle, but hot should read across brown and white and cold should read across yellow/red and white. The yellow/black is a bi-metal for the valve. Read More...
Brian September 26, 2014 for Model Number 110.28322700 I have washer all tore apart have been workin on it for a while so it might take me a bit of time to get it back together and try it my apologies.
1 Answer Hello Brian. The first thing you will test for is power to the unit. Next you will test for power going to the water valve. If there is power there and the unit does not fill, you will need to replace the water valve. If there is no power to the water valve, then you will test the pressure switch on the unit. If there is no power to the violet wire of the pressure switch, then you will need to replace the timer. Make sure you do all these test with the timer turned on in a fill position. 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...

John March 28, 2014 for Model Number 1102832270 I have a Kenmore washer which stops in between the rinse and spin cycle. It will completely stop and after 10 to 20 minutes it will start back up. I am not sure if its my wire harness or timer issue. please help..
1 Answer John, You'd want to start by checking the lid and lid switch assembly WP8318084. If the loading lid is loose and shifts around in the opening, you would loose contact with the lid switch WP8318084 or the lid switch could have a loose connection from the wire harness. Read More...
David A. March 02, 2014 for Model Number Kenmore 300 series I have a Kenmore 300 Series washer. When it is done washing the clothes, the washer is still full of soapy water. If you re-adjust the knob back to the spin cycle, it may or may not drain. If you do it a few times, it completes the cycle properly. Not sure what the issue is.
1 Answer Hello David, It is very possible for this to be a timer issue. This could also be a lid switch issue or a harness issue. Of course, these are guesses since we have no model number. To diagnose more precisely, we need the model number from the units' I.D. tag. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Jeff October 04, 2013 for Model Number kenmore 110.28322700 My washer will only wash on hot. Also once it hits the rinse cycle it wont rinse. But if you turn knob past rinse it will spin. Timer?
Paul L May 30, 2013 for Model Number Whirlpool model 8318015 The machine fills with water but will not go into any of the cycles. I check the lid switch and it is functioning properly. I also check the the violet to tan continuity on the water pressure valve, did not get a reading unless I rotated the control dial and then only a spike in a few positions on the dial. I could also hear a slight hum as I turn the dial.
1 Answer Hello Paul. If the lid switch and the lid strike is good, and the pressure switch is turning off the water and not over flowing, you will need to replace the timer on the unit for the issue you are having with the unit. Read More...
Paul Lastra May 30, 2013 for Model Number Whirlpool top load washer (2007) Machine will fill with water, but will not go into any of the cycles. Timer part # is AP3755885, not sure what the washer model number is.
1 Answer Paul, You will want to test the lid switch on the unit to ensure that it is good. With the door closed the lid switch should have continuity. If not then you would need to replace the switch. Read More...
