It fills with water and then it does nothing.I thought there was a problem with the water pump, and replaced it. Now as I move the knob through the wash cycles by turning it, I get it to drain at least, but it won't agitate or spin or go through any cycle other than fill, sit there, and only drain while I manually turn the nob to final spin.

Will not rinse or spin

I have had similar situation with my top load washer over the years. It has been the timer 3 times and the water pump 1 time.
How I came up with it being the timer. The knob which you set it on the type wash you want. Put it on a different cycle and see if it completes the wash cycle. example if my washer is not working when I put it on heavy wash cycle I might put it on the casual wash cycle. If you change the wash cycle and it goes through the complete cycle it is probably the timer which is part of the knob you change for different wash cycles with.
If it stops when it is time to empty the tub on all cycles it may be the water pump which empties the tub. The one time I had a problem with the water pump it was a small piece of coal had the pump locked up. I never figured how it got out of the tub and to the pump but I put it back together and it worked fine.
It should not go into the spin cycle if the tub is full of water.
Two of the timers I bought cost 40 - 60 dollars. One was 140 dollars I bought a new washer that time because the washer only cost 220 dollars.

Its probably the flow meter. If a debris gets into the receptical on the back when the water tank is removed, it flows to the flow meter and restricts or plugs the intake. Then when you try to flow water the pump tries to **** water but nothing moves and the turbine in the flow meter does not spin, telling the computer that it needs to be ventilated. Clean or replace the flow meter and you should be good to go. Remember, when you have the water tank off don't work on the beans and when your filling the water tank, do it off the machine so you don't contaminate the grinder.

The washer filled with water and started washing but now it won't drain, the knob keeps going and then just turns off but the water won't drain..what should I do?

Do you hear the pump run when it is supposed to? If not, then the pump may need to be replaced (warranty?). If the pump runs, but nothing comes out, lower the drain hose to a pan or bucket on the floor to see if water will run out under gravity. If water does come out, the pump may be defective (the impeller in the pump is loose on the motor shaft). If nothing comes out of the drain, look for a pinched drain hose or the hose from the outer tub to the pump. It may also be an obstruction in the drain connection at the tub connection (a stray sock or similar). Hope this works!

Your knob is faulty and will have to be replaced. You can get one from repariclinic.com or patselect.com along with directions, pictures, and more.

Drum will not spin

Hi,
I am the new owner of a used Asko Cylinda 10504.
The last owner briefly demonstrated the washer starting a wash cycle and entering the agitation cycle of the wash before stopping and pumping the water out and spinning in a final end cycle. I bought it. I had the machine installed turned it on and cannot get it to go through the wash cycle. After starting at #1 it goes through a perpetual spin cycle of sorts--water and soap soaking the drum and laundry but not enough water to fill up half way or less. It stops at number 4 on the program knob sits on a red dot (next to the #4) and does nothing. I then manually move it to the next cycle and it repeats the spin cycle again until I have advanced the program to the end. No wash cycle no rinse cycle. Nothing. When it advances to the red dot I wait for at least 5 minutes before manually advancing the knob. The instructions say that I should get the water pumped out by turning the program knob to #7 or #9 but in both cases it just spins and does no empty or finish in the end spin cycle of several (9?) minutes. Nothing but banging and spinning. The water seems to get into the drum as well as the detergent but nothing else is happening.
No mater where I start the program it spins and sloshes soapy water, pumping almost nothing out.
Any suggestions short of putting it on the curb or paying a kings ransom to fly a tech out to look at it?

MY GUESS.
It seems that it is repeating the same brief cycle over and over. During the move to my house the electronics re set(??!?!?) and now need to be set to the normal mode after being re connected?
Can you help?
Blessings,
Douglas

Hi. My water level knob is very hard to turn and the water level is not correct when filling the washer. Any thoughts?

if it has been quite some time since you turned the knob it is possible that it is starting to sieze up, you may have to replace the switch behind the knob

The water is not getting picked up when the pump runs

sounds like you need to prime the pump manually:
Fill water tank.

Turn power on.

Open the steam knob all the way.

Press the coffee button.

Put a cup under the steam pump wand.

Wait until you see a steady flow of water and no air.

When you see the flow of water, close the steam knob.

Turn off the coffee button.

Now the machine should be ready to brew an espresso.

You might need to do this if you have not used your espresso machine for a few weeks or if it has been moved.
if that does not work contact the service center:

Alternatively, try draining the machine. Page 37 of the user manual, Drainage. Place cup under the steam/hot water tube, turn knob clockwise around to 9. If the pump is ok, it will start automatically and start filling the cup. Drain about 1/2 cup of hot water and return knob counterclockwise to start position. If the flow meter is not damaged, the Ventilate message should be gone.

GE Potscrubber Disshwasher GSD700G, wont cycle

Most washers do not fill they spray the dishes. When enough water has accumulated in the bottom a float switch shuts off the water and turns on the pump to remove the water. If the pump motor does not remove the water the cycle will not continue but the timer will. There may be something clogging the pump and resulting in an overload condition for the motor. This would account for the smell. A pump may turn freely when you spin it by hand because you cannot spin it fast enough by hand to determine if the pump is obstructed. Does the cycle drain the water? If the cycle stops and there is water in the bottom not being pumped out then you should look at the pump and the motor to determine problem.

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
(suggestions/guidance!)
This sounds very much like the belt is broken or the motor is malfunctioning.
Belt first.
Belts are not expensive- sorry I do not know how much yours would cost- and are easy to be changed by a competent person:-
REMOVE POWER FROM THE MACHINE AND REMOVE THE BACK.
The motor support bolts should be loosened and the old belt removed. Often putting the new belt on is a bit of a struggle, even with the motor 'loose', because it is new and smaller!
Once on it should be tensioned by pulling the motor against the belt firmly- but not over tight- and the motor support bolts tightened.
ON NO ACCOUNT SHOULD ANY FORM OF LEVERAGE BE USED TO TENSION THE BELT. THAT COULD LEAD TO DAMAGE TO THE BELT, MOTOR AND BEARINGS- EXPENSIVE!
If it turns out to be the motor, it is false economy to just have the brushes changed although financially very attractive. Experience of others is that the brushes may only last months unless, that is, the motor is totally refurbished at the same time. It depends on how old the motor is and how much wear the commutator has had. New motors are not cheap, though. It's your choice!

If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck!
John C
