Begins to start then stops - Roper RAS8445KQ Top Load Washer

call a local repair service that make is not sold around this location SORRY

If it works and washes the cloths most likely it is normal.

You did not post the model number but there is a water level sensor and it maybe plugged with softener or debris.

That's usually a sign that the motor is beginning to go bad.

If a video doesn't play continuously (it stops and starts while you're watching), or stops early, try these troubleshooting steps:
Check your internet connection. You'll need a broadband connection with at least 500 Kbps for the best viewing experience.
Change the video quality to a lower setting to see if the video begins to load.
Pause the video, then change the quality. Allow the gray bar at the bottom of the player to load. Try playing the video again.
If the video still doesn't load, clear your browser's cache and cookies and try viewing the video again.

I wish I had a solution, I have the same issue. My WHDRE526EWW Top Load washer stops intermittently sometimes while filling up, sometimes while rinsing, sometimes while washing and sometimes while spinning. I just have to guess when it's going to stop and check on each load frequently to restart it when it stops. Sometimes I can't even get it to start spinning again and I will have to unplug it and plug it back in and then it will spin. Hope someone can help!

press stop instead of pause.

Before the movie loads select the DVD icon and press triangle. Scroll down to Start from beginning.

Also, you can go to the disk menu with Square (or menu/title if you have the remote) and go to scene selection and pick the first scene.

Or, you can fast forward through to the very end and the movie will reset.
