Waste water outfall pipe blocked or kinked..........
cheers
I considered that when I thought the overflow may have came from the drain hose or my water pipe in the wall. The drain and the hose was good. I even snaked it to make sure. When it happened again, I noticed that the overflow was due to the water not stopping when it should; it was overflowing the drum! I've done about 12 more loads since then and it hasn't overflowed again. I'm just having to press the pause/start button every time it starts to drain. Sometimes I'm pushing the button two and three times during one cycle drain.
you have a pressure switch inside which cuts off the water supply when it reaches stated level. this switch can get blocked by stuff as small as a grain of sand.
under the machine lid........look for a small usualy round plastic can near the side on machine it will have small plastic tube which goes to the drum......remove the tube and blow down it ...i would also find similar tube to conect to switch and do same.such and blow you should hear a click inside the switch....which is normal..
cheers
Thank you for the information. I will look into this and let you know.

SOURCE: Washer continuously fills but drains at the same time during rinse cycle.
you have the drain pipe too low into tthe house drain pipe, raise the washers drain pipe up , you only need four inches down into the hous drain
also the house drain pipe needs to be as high as the lid of the machine before you put the washer drain tube into the house drain
you have a syphoning effect

It's overfilling
If your washer is overfilling, check these:
Water-inlet valve
Water-level switch
Water-inlet valve
A defect in the water-inlet valve may mean that it's no longer able to shut off completely when the electricity has been turned off to it. If this occurs, the valve may leak and drip water into the clothes tub. In time, the water may accumulate substantially. If this happens, you need to replace the valve.
Water-level switch
A defect--or an obstruction--in the water-level switch may mean that it can't tell the water to shut off. So the machine overflows. This switch senses the water level in the clothes tub. It's usually a diaphragm device with a small, clear tube attached between the switch and the bottom of the washer's outer tub. As the water level in the tub increases, the pressure on the air in the tube increases. When the pressure reaches a certain level, it activates the switch, shuts off the water, and signals the timer to begin the agitate cycle. You can either clear any obstruction in the tube or replace the water-level switch.
It's underfilling
The water-level switch regulates your washer's fill volume. This switch is usually a diaphragm device with a small, clear tube attached between the switch and the bottom of the washer's outer tub. As the water level in the tub increases, the pressure on the air in the tube increases. When the pressure reaches a certain level, it activates the switch, shuts off the water, and signals the timer to begin the agitate cycle. If the switch is defective, it may prematurely signal the water to shut off. If so, you probably need to replace the water-level switch.
The water temperature is incorrect
The temperature of the incoming water determines the temperature of the water in your washer. You get either hot, cold, or a mix of the hot and cold water that's currently available to the machine. So if the cold water that enters the machine is very cold--or if the hot water entering the machine is very hot--the warm water is affected.
If you live in a Northern climate, unless you adjust the hot and cold water taps that supply water to your washer, the warm water supplied to your washer is usually hotter during the summer months and colder during the winter months.
