Scott April 25, 2020 for Model Number Lsn2000pw4 My washer fills, drains, spins but doesn't agitate in any wash or rinse cycle. Sometimes I can get it to fast agitate after I put it in extra gentle wash cycle, then switch to regular cycle. If I can get it to fast agitate, it will fast agitate and then slow agitate, drain, spin and fill for rinse, then not agitate. I have replaced the agitator shaft, transmission oil seal, water valve, clutch, neutral drain kit, agitator dogs, motor coupling and capacitor. After the washer fills, the timer advances and the motor sounds like it is running and is operating the agitator gears in the transmission, but doesn't drive the agitator shaft. Is there a test to verify the controls are supplying signal and sufficient voltage to the motor to drive the agitator? I wondered if the timer could have a dead spot where it would supply signal to the motor causing it to run but not with enough voltage/amperage to agitate.
1 Answer Hello Scott. Take the cabinet off, then remove the pump and motor and the rubber coupling insert. Grab the part of the coupling that seats on the transmission and turn it manually both ways. It should spin one way and agitate opposite way. If it agitate grab the agitator to imitate the load. You may have there bad transmission or stripped agitator splines inside. Good lock. Read More...
Marvin November 14, 2019 for Model Number LSN200PW3 My Whirlpool seems to run all right except at the end of the cycle the clothes are wet and I know it went through the spin cycle. Can you help? thanks!
1 Answer Marvin, the motor coupling 285753A and clutch assembly 285785 would need to be inspected as they are the most common cause for a direct drive washer to not spin the clothes out fully. Read More...
Gary Northington May 18, 2019 for Model Number LSQ9549LW1 Washing machine filled and ran fine in casual permanent press mode. However, machine stopped in mid cool down. Not responding on any settings. Power OK. Lid switch OK. Normally hear a tick, tick, tick from timer during cycle time changes. No sound. No motor hum. No response. Just dead silence. Any ideas? Thanks Gary
1 Answer Gary, try turning the timer to a spin cycle and see if it spins, if it does not spin, you may have a bad lid switch. If it does, make sure the water valves are good, if it is trying to fill with cold water during the rinse cycle and no water is going into the tub, you may have a bad inlet valve. Also, the timer could have a dead spot and is stopping at that position and would need to be replaced. Just some ideas to check before buying a timer WP8541270 Read More...

Todd June 02, 2015 for Model Number saws800hq0 My whirlpool model saws800hq0 runs all the way through until the extra rinse and stops. What is the problem?
1 Answer Hello Todd. You need to see if the extra rinse option is turned on. If so, make sure the switch is good and if it is replace the timer. 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...

Jeramy September 15, 2013 for Model Number taws850pq2 My washer will start wash fine and works great till it gets to the point where it needs to switch to the rinse cycle then it seems like it stalls you can here a sound like the timer is trying to run but it doesn't you have to push the button in and advance the timer to rinse and then it finishes on its own. What do you think the issue is?
1 Answer Hello Jeramy. Check and see if the unit is only filling with hot water and not allowing in cold water. If so, you will need to make sure screens are not clogged and replace the valve if needed. Read More...
Dave July 04, 2013 for Model Number LSN200PW1 My washer trips my electrical breaker when in the permanent press cycle. The other cycles are fine.
1 Answer Hello Dave, This is probably a bad cycle switch (AP3688582). But you must realize there is the possibility the timer (AP3181958) could have an issue. Read More...
Jay J September 18, 2012 for Model Number LSQ9610LG0 My washer stops between cycles but, starts the next cycle automatically. Is it my timer assembly thats bad?????
1 Answer Hello Jay. Yes, if the contacts are stuck in the timer WP8541270, it can cause the issue you are having with the unit. Also, id the timer motor wire gets shorted and powers the timer motor, it can cause this issue as well. Read More...
