SOURCE: The water doesn't stop.

I'm not familiar with your model washer, but most overfill problems are attributed to either a fill valve that does not shut off properly (this is where the fill hoses connect to), or a pressure switch malfunction. The pressure switch is what determines at what point the washer shuts off. Since you just bought the washer, I'm assuming the water inlet valve is probably NOT an issue, because the problem I mention with it not shutting off, is usually attributed to sediment build up. The pressure switch is controlled by a pressure hose and an electrical connection. If the electrical connection is intact (no corrosion or broken wires) and the air hose is connected and has no holes or slits, I would rule that you may have a bad pressure switch. However...It is common for the air air hose to come loose on the pressure switch and fall off. This can happen through normal use due to vibration, or during shipping. The result: a pressure switch that no longer senses the water level and will not shut off. This is easily resolved by re-attaching the air hose. What appears to be a very serious problem can often be something as simple as reconnecting a hose. Now...if you just bought the appliance, I would NOT recommend you open it to inspect. Most appliances come with a limited one-year manufacturers warranty. You can void this warranty by opening the appliance. This is the only time I would recommend you place a service call. I know this may be an inconvenience to you, but the service should be FREE if still under warranty. If you end up damaging something attempting a repair on your own, the repair would be YOUR responsibility. If you cannot find your sales receipt, the appliance serial number will determine the manufactured date and the warranty should STILL be honored. I hope this helps you. Let me know if you still have questions.

Close the lid! There's a sensor on the back hinge of the lid. Make sure its working. You should hear a small click when you close the lid.

SOURCE: Avanti W797 Combo Washer and Dryer............Does not fill with enough water to wash clothes. It will runn the cycles with some water, but clothes do not all even get wet????? How can I correct the p

I have this problem too. Called the repair man out to the house & he just told me it was set at the factory & there was nothing he could do. I discovered if I held the water level knob between the settings given, water would run to the level I wanted as long as I held it in place, but I don't know if this does any damage to the machine. So I don't know if you want to try that or if it can even be done on your model???

I have a GE washer model# 175D2750G041 after the washer fills up with water and starts to spin to wash it makes a awful noise but only when spinning to wash not spin to drain water . what could it be

Your question is confusing. A washer doesn’t spin when it washes. It agitates. A washer fill with water, agitate, drain then spin water out. Please reword your question.

My wahser just stopped working it filled with water and then started agitating and then all the sudden stopped please help

When the cycle doesn't advance, it's probably the timer or a cold-water supply problem:

  • It's the timer, if your washing machine fills with water and begins agitating, but the timer never advances--or if the washer is in a spin cycle and the timer won't advance. Then you need to replace the timer.


  • It may be a cold-water supply problem, if the washing machine fills with water, agitates, drains, and spins, but then doesn't fill with rinse water. See There's no cold water

    Washing Machine Rinse and Spin lights are on

    its the problem of drum getting blocked by any clothes getting tucked up.also try to move the drum manually with the machine off.if it makes any noise its the faulty motor.or drum has lost its alignment.it needs to be reseated properly in that case. -------------- The water fill valve - The water fill valve is a mechanical and electrical part, the coils on the valve need electricity to mechanically open the valve to allow the water to flow into the washer....myth....the washer pumps water into itself...no, it does not. The fill valve opens and the house water pressure pushes the water into the washing machine.
    No cold water or no hot water - The fill valve has two coils, one for the hot water and one for the cold water. It is possible that one of the coils can fail and you loose that filling ability. If the cold water coil quits, the hot will still work and during warm fill you will get hot water only and during a cold fill you will get no water at all. If the hot coils quits, you will still have cold water fill, cold water only on a warm setting and no water on a hot fill setting. You can No cold water or no hot water - The fill valve has two coils, one for the hot water and one for the cold water. It is possible that one of the coils can fail and you loose that filling ability. If the cold water coil quits, the hot will still work and during warm fill you will get hot water only and during a cold fill you will get no water at all. If the hot coils quits, you will still have cold water fill, cold water only on a warm setting and no water on a hot fill setting. You can test a fill valve live for 120 volts, power to a fill valve coil and no fill = a bad fill valve. You can also test the coils for continuity, no continuity = a bad fill valve. Some Maytag washers have a fuse in the fill valve circuit, if this fuse let go the washer will not fill. Fill valves can also from time to time stick open and not stop filling. If you have to shut off the fill valves to stop the water from filling in the washer, you have a bad fill valve and you will have to replace it.

    Stops in the middle of wash cycle

    Hi!

    If the cycle doesn't advance, it's probably the timer or a cold-water supply problem:
    It's the timer, if your washing machine fills with water and begins agitating, but the timer never advances--or if the washer is in a spin cycle and the timer won't advance. Then you need to replace the timer.
    It may be a cold-water supply problem, if the washing machine fills with water, agitates, drains, and spins, but then doesn't fill with rinse water. See There's no cold water.

    Kenmore front-load washer stops at rinse cycle

    When the washer initially fills for the wash, is it only hot water entering the drum? Try switching the water temperature between hot and cold as it fills. If any of them show little or no water getting through, it sounds too easy but check to make sure water supply taps are on, and that the cold/hot fill hoses aren't reversed. Remove the fill hoses and check any of the screen filters for blockage (in the hoses and in the inlet water valve). When the machine stops and waits to fill but all you hear is a hum, it sounds like there is power going to the valve but water is not able to get through it.
    Good luck!

    Does it fill with "cold" water?Will it spin?Drain?If the machine will fill up with cold water,will the timer advance by itself to finish?Or if you place the timer in spin cycle will it spin?First off if your not getting "Cold" water to fill inside :Replace the water valve (because when the timer stops after the agitation cycle it wont advance because it cant fill up with cold water.
