After a power outage, I wanted to continue the washing cycle. The washing machine would not start. I reset the program by holding the START button for a long time. The washing machine lit up all the LEDs. Then they turned off and nothing happened.

Exactly 20 minutes later, the pump starts running and the LOCK LED begins flashing rapidly, while the RAPID WASH LED flashes a little more slowly. After 5 minutes, the pump stops, but the LED combination keeps flashing in the same way.

There should be two hidden diagnostic LEDs on the inside of the control panel. They are not flashing.

The door lock is working — verified.
The motor works.
The heating element works.
The pressure switch works.
The pump works.

I measured continuity with resistance at the output of the temperature sensor.
The tacho generates voltage according to motor speed when the motor is turning.
The relays on the control board are functional.

Everything was tested outside the washing machine wiring.
The electrolytic capacitors have been replaced.
The triac controlling the door lock is fine and was replaced just in case.

What seems strange, however, is that the door lock engages almost immediately after the washing machine is plugged into the mains. This happens because the processor’s control pin sends a signal to the base of the transistor that triggers the triac.The door lock unlocks only if I unplug the washing machine from the mains.

thank you

My washing machine has an issue where it pours water during the spin cycle, while it is draining. Basically, it pours water from the top while draining it out from the bottom. It drains the water faster than it can pour it, so it does not actually fill with water, but it does re-wet the clothes, so the clothes are dripping wet when the cycle is complete.

It also agitates while filling with water. This is not much of a problem, but it started happening the same time that the other issue above started happening.

Model: Kenmore Elite 26964503

This is what the washing machine is supposed to do:

1. Wash Cycle
   1. Fill with water.
   2. When full, begin agitating.
   3. After a while, drain water.
2. Rinse Cycle
   1. Fill with water.
   2. When full, begin agitating.
   3. After a while, drain water.
3. Spin Cycle
   1. Spin while draining water.
   2. When empty, continue spinning and draining.
   3. After a while, stop.

This is what the washing machine actually does (the bold text marks the differences):

1. Wash Cycle
   1. Fill with water while agitating.
   2. When full, continue agitating.
   3. After a while, drain water.
2. Rinse Cycle
   1. Fill with water while agitating.
   2. When full, continue agitating.
   3. After a while, drain water.
3. Spin Cycle
   1. Spin while draining water.
   2. When empty, continue spinning and draining but also begin pouring water from top.
   3. After a while, stop.

The main problem is 3-2: in the spin cycle, the machine begins to pour water after it has drained all of the water. It is not supposed to be pouring water at this point; it defeats the purpose of the spin cycle.

What could this be? What would cause it to pour water during the spin cycle?

The water should be draining out of the drain hose.

The slow agitation issues came on gradually, at first it was hesitating after filling but would eventually start, but after awhile it would go through the whole agitation phase without moving at all.

I've replaced the timer and the capacitor.

Turns out it is a failed slow speed winding in the motor.

Hi all, having an issue with our MVWX700XL2 washing machine. Over the past 1+ year, when starting and periodically during a wash, the unit will start clicking. It’s like it’s trying to kick on the spin then after so many times it will eventually catch and spin. Whatever, it’s still been working and completing loads all this time.

However over the past week it’s gotten worse, it will continually click and never catch and spin the drum… after so long it will eventually give up and the washer turns off. Then we go to start it again and it will click for a while and catch and start spinning and do the complete wash as usual.

Any idea what this is? It’s like a relay clicking but not fully engaging the drum to spin.

Here is a short video:

Thanks all!
