CK TIMER

yes it would be the timer but they also stop if it gets off balance if its just off balance u should be able to lift the lid rearrange then start it again if that doesnt work it is the timer

Hi, Start the washer in a normal cycle, once it starts to fill, unplug the unit from the wall. If the water stops completely its not a water valve issue. If it still drips, replace the water valve to the washer. Good Luck I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gere_bf68e6055dd61249

There are 2 screws behind panel. Remove to lift panel, remove the 2 clips and disconnect lid switch connector. You can then lift body off frame.

sounds like a problem with your basket drive assembly brake release arm could be broken not releasing the brake allowing the basket to spin,,,,,

Remove top cover, take out the bolt remove the small cover to expose the plate with several screws,remove the screws and lift the inner tub up. Usually this requires two people to get the tub up and out as it is very hard to pull up as it kind of sticks to the shaft

my first thought is belts, but maybe pump
need more info for proper dianosis

RDU Appliance Repair 919 827 1482 Serving Raleigh Cary Durham NC mav7600aww has a brake that goes bad. some will just spin slowly during agitate cycle and not really agitate

clean the lint filter in the machine

Check balance spring adjusters are locked off. Could be the base warping, if so it will need replacing.

No spin, or lite spin try these: Using a multi meter check for continuity the door switch, which when bad may not allow agitation or spin. The lid switch assembly can fail either mechanically or electrically. Check the clutch, brake assembly and transmission, one way to check for slipping is to get under the machine after a spin cycle ( this is if u get a lil spin but not much leaving clothes still wet) mix in a spray bottle a lil water and some dish detergent, then spray it on the clutch assembly ( the metal round pc. Connected to the tranny) if it sizzles and steams up then u know its bad and slipping. Another way to check clutch if u get no spin at all? Is to take it out and use ur hand to try and turn the inner spring assembly pushing it around the inside? If its very easy, it BAD should be hard to push by hand. Next check the motor coupler which engages the tub and tranny to the motor. ( if its bad u usually get no wash or spin or very little of either) Next check for a loose, worn or broken belt if belt driven. On some front load models u may need to check the STATOR assembly. The stator is essentially one half of a motor, it interacts with the tub by creating a strong electro-magnet. If the stator burns out the washer won't spin or agitate. Check the stator for continuity. This part is often misdiagnosed. Sometimes a no spin machine can be due to a plugged waterpump hose or obstructed water pump propeller. Check these by eye and hand.

if it's making a noise then either your drain pump bearing is going out or your thrust bearing is going out (assuming the noise happens in both spin and wash). Tip the washer backwards so that you can get underneath of it. Take the belt off and spin the pump pulley on the right side. This should spin effortlessly.

The middle pulley is the trustbearing pulley. Spin this--- one direction it should have a little bit of resistance--- the other should have more resistance

I suspect bad motor windings. it has enough power to run delicate but not other cycles?

may have blown a fuse check in the panel and also check to see if it has a thermal fuse included, I would also check the door switch as it can cut off all power also
