This video saved us a lot of time and money. We were able to follow the easy steps to diagnose the actuator needed to be changed, had the part ordered changed and re-calibrated in a day. Thank you very much for the easy but thorough video!

What part did you have to get for the actuator? Please 🙏🏽

Best, actually informative video I've seen. After getting it to do an actual wash, I went to wash my bathmat next, so put the machine on delicate. It filled the water enough to submerge it, then immediately drained. It did the same thing for rinse. ZERO agatation between filling and draining. That's not how a delicate cycle is supposed to work, is it? At least it spun. LOL This thing is junk as far as the programming goes. I wish I could afford a Samsung, which has way more 5 star ratings than any Whirlpool-made machine.

Excellent viseo instruction! Many many thanks to you. Although I am retired from years of production machine trouble shooting and repair & maintenance, the service manual I received with this washer just hurt my analog brain.

How do I get it out of rinse mode..when I follow your directions I don't get the flashing lights or water running its just stuck..when I plug it back up it's still in rinse

@htgappliance 8 ай бұрын

Make sure the tub is drained, check cold water and pressure sensor. The pressure sensor is built into the board.

Also when I’m doing the diagnostic should my controller line up with what you did in the video. The lights did but when you might be on the regular my knob is on drain/spin

Knob position should not matter, I just like to start in the 12 o'clock position

Hi...my lights will not blink after rotating the knob... please what should I do???

@htgappliance 8 ай бұрын

You have to rotate knob counter clockwise to reset. If the control is dead and not responding, and power supply is good, it's a failed control

My washer is a conversator washer and I unplug it and it's stuck in rinse

@htgappliance 8 ай бұрын

Stuck in rinse could be a lid lock, cold water, pressure switch/control, or a drain/spin issue

What was the cause of the noise during the spin cycle? Mine has it also when the drum is empty.

@girlbye7027 Жыл бұрын

After I do the diagnostic. My machine doesn’t stop running water. The lid isn’t locking to engage the washer to start

Nothing happens when I went in agitation mode. I could see it wasn’t moving the clothes. The tub moves and the middle agitator barely moved. I toke it apart and cleaned under it. It wasn’t bad. The tub also looks off balance Please help

Might be a hub, or actuator

What should i do if my lid will not lock? Even during diagnostics, the lock never clicks and the agitator never moves. HELP!

@htgappliance 9 ай бұрын

More than likely, the lid lock would need to be replaced. Make sure the strike isn't damaged. (The white thing that inserts into the lid lock)
