Washing Machine Keeps Turning Off

After the wash cycle and the machine starts it's spin, it then stops, beeps. I have to turn it off, turn it back on, then hit the restart button and it finishes the rest of the cycles. It is not out of balance when this happens which is every time I do a load. This machine is about 5 years old. Any suggestions?

Hello
My washing machine did that and it needed a new switch. They are not very expensive. I think I paid 60 dollars for them to come out and then 10 dollars for the switch. It's an easy fix.

Well, I would actually venture to say that it's a sign. I think you should just stop doing the laundry altogether. Maybe someone else would have more luck with the washer....heee heee.

I would tend to agree that it is the timer. If you are handy at all, you can fix it yourself. I say this assuming that it is no longer under warranty. If the washer is not past the warranty period, definitely call a repairman!

I get my appliance parts at: www.repairclinic.com

Their prices are quite reasonable and they also provide the instructions for the repair online! If you are unsure that you can do the repair, at least check it out and look at the directions before you call the repair guy to be sure.

I'm not a representative of the site, just a satisfied repeat customer.

There may be a problem with the door switch. It may think you are opening the door.
