I’m a single mom and need to take care of my household. I was waiting for 4th of July sales to buy a new washer machine until I watched your video. It’s amazing how you helped me and I’m sure others in fixing their washing machines. I appreciate you and this video very much I’m thankful that there’s people like you that post!

I could use your help. This is unrelated to this video. I have a Kenmore 90 Series washer. After completing one load of wash I started a second. The tub filled with water, agitated then stopped. No matter what setting I put it in nothing happens. No humming, nothing. Another Kenmore 90 series washer was given to me. It agitated but no spin. After checking it out it was only a loose wire. Plugged it in & it went through the cycles. Put a load of cloths in & the only cycle that will now work is the spin. Any help on either one of these would be appreciated. I did notice same series but different timer control model. I did check the lid switch, both are good. I even jumped them to make sure. This video is very well done, full view & 👍 Stay safe, Joe Z

@WasherDryerMoney 9 ай бұрын

The second washe mentioned… The first thing a Washer will do is call for water from the water valves. If it does nothing, it could be that the cold water valve has gone bad. That would make sense of why you can progress it to spin and it will spin out. You are telling it not to call for water anymore and go to spin cycle. Quick way to check is turn it to hot water. It will still stop halfway through because the rinse cycle is with cold water, but… if it starts filling with water, you know the cold water valve is out. The first one you mention does sound like a lid switch if it is not draining the water. Since you said you checked the lid switch the other less common thing it could be is the clutch. It will be obvious if it’s the clutch it will drain the water out and still make noise but not spin.

@JOEZEP54 9 ай бұрын

@WasherDryerMoney 3 жыл бұрын

I have heard that happened before. Usually you’ll have to break a plastic water pump with a hammer and replace it. Just be careful not to hurt yourself or hurt the motor. Go slow and keep cracking it to pieces until it comes all the way off. a new water pump it’s not that expensive for this type of machine usually less than 20 bucks. Sometimes the shaft that is rusted and swollen you will have to take a piece of sandpaper and clean it up before the new pump will easily go on.

@victoriashaw5073 3 жыл бұрын

Will replacing the pump work if my estate is stopping before the spin cycle?

@WasherDryerMoney 3 жыл бұрын

If it stops before the spin cycle that usually means the lid switch has gone out. When the lid switch goes out it thinks the door is open and will not begin spin cycle until the door is closed.

The pump is all plastic. after while plastic on plastic will just wear out. When it does, it just starts dripping and then pouring if you let it go for too long. The only other thing that can leak on these type of washers is the tub seal, which is pretty rare. Most of the time it’s the water pump.
