Sometimes water won't flow on certain timer settings. And sometimes starts, then stops.
When setting the timer for initial fill for wash, some categories won't start the water (cotton = no fill, knit = fill, prewash = fill, perm. press = no fill). Timer makes the usual clock-tick noise. And sometimes the flow will start, then stop, then start. Seems fairly consistent on different wash categories.

Check the water flow coming out of your water valves on the wall. Once in awhile a faucet washer comes loose in the valve causing "flutter". Check the flow through the hoses before they get to the washer.
sounds like a water fill problem to me, normally at start of cycle door locked, program set, start water solenoid opens and fills machine with water, once water reaches set level heater will come on and wash program will commence,
so if you have a restriction in the water supply/ water tap not turned on correctly, on blockage in water solenoid valve water flow to machine will be restricted causing a long delay before machine starts, things to try
1. make sure hose connection water valve is fully open
2.open soap draw to see / if you can hear water flowing into machine,
3 if its very slow you have a restriction in water supply
could be a twist in water supply hose, causing a restriction
all above is if machine is taking to long to fill with water,
good luck .
This is almost certainly the filter to the empty pump blocked. When you power up the machine, the first thing it does is make sure there is no water left over in the tub, if it can't evacuate any water it finds there, it won't go any further. Same on a spin, if after a set time the water hasn't emptied the empty cycle will stop but the spine cycle wont start because there is still water in the drum.
Hi just read your posting.Now what water temp have you selected for wash?Is it cold, warm, or hot?Sounds like a water flow problem to me.The water valves on your model of machine sometimes sound like they are filling correctly but they only let a little bit of water in.How long does it take to fill your machine and start agitating when you have selected low water level?Please reply with additional information and I am sure I can help you rectify this fault.Looking forward to your reply.
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
there are contacts that are in the timer that get arched and don't make good contact. also there is a set down by the motor that sometimes mess up and stop working you can use some emery cloth to clean the contacts. good luck.
It certainly sounds like the water level switch acting up. Do a couple of other checks first. Make sure you are not siphoning on the initial fill. Check your drain hose and make sure there is an air gap to the drain pipe. If you don't have a gap sometimes it will fill and siphon right out. Next would be to examine the level switch hose that runs to the tub. You want to make sure that there is no pin hole leaks in it causing this problem. Once you are satisfied the drain and tubing is ok, get another piece of tubing the same size and blow into the level switch when the machine is acting up. If the water stops, you can be almost certain it is the switch. Part number...3366847. It's important to do these checks because I have seen timers on this model mimic the water level switch.
