Lee January 31, 2018 for Model Number ltg5243dq4 Washer will not advance to next part of cycle, and then if you manually move it to rinse and spin, it will not advance or pump water out of machine. It doesn't make any difference on what type of wash you have it on, it will only run for a few minutes and shut off. But it will never empty , drain and spin.
1 Answer Hello Lee. You will need to make sure the lid switch is good on the unit. If so, then it sounds like you will need to replace the timer on the unit. Thank you. Read More...
Curt March 07, 2015 for Model Number LTE5243DQ6 This combo unit has a burnt timer apparently from a really bad power surge, owner wants to try and replace timer I am wondering since the timer seems to be the only thing affected, is it a possibility that motor could have been affected, and probably the only way to find out is to put another timer in place to check it out. Is there another way to check motor? Thanks for your time and help.
1 Answer Curt, The only way to really test the motor would be to check the windings on the motor. Keep in mind that just because the windings may check ok then motor could still be bad. Read More...

Tim January 20, 2013 for Model Number whirlpool lte5243dq5 My washer will only run on high speed agitate, not low. Is this a problem with the timer or with the low speed control of the motor. If it is the motor, is there a way I can jump a wire on the timer so that the motor only runs with high speed? Thanks for your time in answering this question for me. Tim
1 Answer Hello Tim, Based on the information it sounds as though you are having a problem with the centrifugal switch on the motor. When you check the switch from V to White you should have 120 vac when on low. If you are not getting 120vac then check from blue to white and see if you are getting 120 vac. IF you are getting 120vac to this point then the contacts inside the switch are bad and you would need to replace the switch WP8529896. Read More...
