Rick October 10, 2012 for Model Number SAWX650JQ0 My washer will run through all the cylces but will not drain. The lid switch seams to work cause while spinning and i open the lid it stops. Replaced the pump and checked all the hoses for clogs. Wondering if the timer?
1 Answer Hello Rick. No, the pump attaches to the motor, so if the motor is turning, so is the pump. It has to be clogged or the pump is stripped out if the unit is spinning. If the unit agitates during the spin, then it could be the timer or the motor that is bad. Read More...
Rambo September 02, 2012 for Model Number RAS8445JQO Our washer will fiil, agitate,then stops and will not drain and spin. We have done the continuity check with the multi meter, and it checks out okay. How do I check to determine if it might be the timer switch??
1 Answer Rambo, Are you sure you checked the lid switch circuits and wiring back to the timer, and the plastic actuator on the washer lid WP358684 and made sure the lid switch assembly 3949247V is properly mounted and secured to the top of the washer ? If so, then you'll need to unplug the power cord, set the timer to the final spin / drain and pull out the knob. and check for the appropriate "closed" contacts (filled in black area of timer cycle chart). ie: You'd need to check for a "closed" Circuit between the gray and black wires from the lid switch at the timer block terminal.

Dorene August 29, 2012 for Model Number LSR8433KQ0 My washer stops after each cycle and I have to advance it to the next. When it gets to the rinse cycle it does not drain. I am unable to get it to drain, unless I sit there and play with it forever. Once I am able to get the washer to drain, I then have to set it at the rinse cycle and it will finish the cycle without a problem. What's up with that?? We checked the lid switch and it is good. Does my washer just need a timer control, or does it need something else?
1 Answer Dorene, It still sounds like there's an issue in the lid switch assembly 3949247V or the wiring. Before you replace the timer, you may want to check the actuator and switch assembly to make sure there are no loose mounts or screws and the wiring at the switch assembly and timer are not loose. Then replace the timer WP3948852 if all checks OK. Read More...
Casjls August 25, 2012 for Model Number LXR6432JQ0 Our machine will fill with water, go thru the wash cycle just fine, spin cycle is OK to this point too. Once it gets to the rinse cycle, it just stops. Won't fill with water to rinse or do anything else. If you manually advance it to the high spin cycle, it spins. Looks like it's just the rinse cycle that nothing happens on. Any suggestions???
1 Answer Hello Casjls. Check and make sure both the cold and the hot water valves are working properly on the unit. If so, then it may be the timer WP3948852 causing the issue. Read More...
Brandon August 25, 2012 for Model Number LXR^432JQ1 My washer will fill, agitate, and run through a cycle for about 4-5 minutes and then will stop completely. There isn't any sound or ticking or anything coming from the machine. I believe it's probably a timer issue, but I want to be sure before investing in a replacement.
1 Answer Hello Brandon. Based on the information you provided, you will need to check and see if the lid switch 3949247V is bad on the unit and needs to be replaced. It will cause this issue you are having if it is bad or broke. Read More...
Erik August 11, 2012 for Model Number LSR8433KQ0 Is there a how-to video or instructions on how to replace the timer on model number LSR8433KQ0? I just ordered a timer and want to be sure how to replace it.
1 Answer Hello Erik! Unfortunately, we do not have a how-to video on the timer WP3948852. Remove the timer dial and timer knob. On your model you will either have screws on each side of the panel or clips on the bottom of the panel beneath the panel and on top of the cabinet you will release. Unscrew the screw holding the timer in place on the console. Once the screws are removed/clips are released lift the console back. Remove wiring. You will then install in reverse order. Hope this helps! Read More...
Robert July 01, 2012 for Model Number lsr8433kqo My washer is about 10 years old. Recently I will run through a full wash cycle and then find the basement flooded because the water won't turn off and is spilling out over the top of the unit. The dial has turned past the spin cycle and then a little more. It is showing that it is on the off position, yet it is filling up the tub and not advancing to a different cycle which would at least re-drain the tub. Thank you. Rob
1 Answer Hello Robert. If turning of the machine didnt stop the water and you had to turn off the shut off for the water to stop it, the water valve 285805 is bad on the unit and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Steve June 19, 2012 for Model Number TAWS800JQ1 My washer fills with water and stops. I can hear a faint humming and ticking of the timer. I have checked the timer and it checksout ok. I was told on a previous response from one of your experts that it sounds like a timer problem. With the timer ticking , do you think it could still be that? Thanks, Steve
1 Answer Hello Steve. The first thing you will need to check in the unit is the lid switch 3949247V and see if it is bad in the unit. If so, it will cause the issues you are having with 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...
