The rinse cycle dont work also the spin cycle

the lid switch may be loose or broken it happens to me it was washing but never rinse i found out that it was a loose switch this switch prevents the rinse cycle from working with the lid open because of the high speed rinse ,some machines dont work at all, a loose switch makes the machine think the lid is open even if it is closed.good luck.

if the drain pump or drain motor is weak this is will cause and long time draining or totally not running the drain pump or drain motor and its cause of totally stop the cycle of washing machine in rinse time or spin time, because all fully automatic washing machine, after washing cycle the drain pump or drain motor must be on, to remove water before start the next cycle. rinse or spin cycle.
need to replace the part but dont try it if you dont have idea how to do.
call the technician for your safety and not to waste money.

bad control board

probably you've got something blocking the water pump from doing its job properly so check that the water pump is free running emptying all the water if not then there is a blockage in the pump normally ist a button, paper clip or other debris out of a trouser pocket eric

Hello,

I would suspect the water inlet valve as being the problem,if it drains the water and spins the lid switch is going to be good.The thing exclusive to rinse cycles is that they only fill with cold water,and that is what i suspect the problem being is that it's not filling with cold water on the rinse cycle because of a bad water inlet valve.

(i need a manual for a Hitachi PAF-1220P i dont understand the s when going throught the wash cycle there does not appear to have a rinse mode. thank you)...
The 'S' is for 'Spray' which happens at the beginning of the Spin Cycle...it then goes on to rinse etc.

It is most likely that you have a faulty water inlet valve. Some machines have a seperate valve for rinse to flush in a fabric softener I suspect that your detergent flushing valve is faulty.....Good luck Nomess

electronical fault not motor but the controil unit is no working ok ....

Sounds like a belt or clutch issue. What is the make and model #?

It sounds like your timer is defective.  If this is the case you will have to replace it.
