My washing machine fills up with water but does not continue the wash cycle. Sometimes when you slam the lid the washer will continue the wash cycle to the end. Other times the washer stays filled up with water and won't continue the wash cycle.

follow this steps and fix it. God bless you

Lid Switch Assembly

If the washer stops mid cycle the lid switch assembly might be defective. This is a very common problem. The lid switch assembly can fail either mechanically or electrically. Test any electrical switches with an Ohm meter for continuity. The switches should have continuity according to their design.

Water Inlet Valve

If the washer stops mid cycle the water inlet valve cold water side may have failed. Most washers have a cold water rinse and so if they can't fill with cold water they just sit indefinitely waiting for the cold water to enter. If there is cold water to the water inlet valve and the cold water works in other parts of the cycle - or to make warm water - the valve is not the problem.

If the washer stops mid-cycle the main control board might be defective. This is not common. Check other causes first such as the lid or door switch and other components.

Timer

If the washer stops mid cycle the timer might be defective. This part is often misdiagnosed, check other components before replacing this timer.

It sounds like the lid switch is faulty. The washer has a lid switch that checks to see if the lid is open, if lid is open the washer will not start the wash cycle. Check/replace the lid switch and you should be back in business.

u dammaged the door switch

sounds like short in timer

Your lid switch is bad. If you give model number I can give you the part number you need.

on the inside of the lid there is a lid switch hole that a plastic tab goes down through the switch could be bad or the screws holding the switch in could be lose or broken

Your lid switch is bad or loose.. open and close your lid and see if you can hear clicking noises.. if not.. then your lid switch is broken.. good luck

replace the lid switch, or check the connections it might even be your pusing rod for activating the switch

Often the lid switch needs replacement. I can become cracked from the lid being dropped.

THe most likely cause for this is either the lid switch or the timer itself sticking.
