Good afternoon,

This washer keeps pausing during cycle. No errors display while the cycle is interupted. Thought it was the door not aligning with the latch so I replaced my door hinge, which needed replacement anyway.
Now the door closes nice, but the cycle continues to pause intermittently during various cycles, forcing me to press start several times during the cycle. I did get the washer into maintenance mode so I cycled all of the functions and it worked on all.

I did get the error output as well they are below as well as the board info. What are your recommendations on this? Replace the door latch mechanism?

Also, where can I find the repair manual for my model?

Hello?

 

[Jake]

So when you start a new cycle give us the exact details on what it does. Fills, then the tub rotates back and forth for the entire wash cycle? Then drains? Then?

Where exactly is it pausing at? Does it pause at the same spot/spots all the time?

How long does it pause for? Does it get out of pause by itself or do you do something to make it unpause?

I'd first check all your wire connections at the main control board and at the motor control board and at the motor, a loose connection can cause this problem.

Yes, it could possibly be the door switch:

I'm attaching your tech. data sheet below.

I'll get more details on when the washer stops. In the meantime I disassembled the door switch and cleaned with contact cleaner. I reassembled the washer after checking all electrical connections/contacts and ran it through a cycle. Seems to be working now. Thanks for the guide. Any chance you have a complete service guide?

No, I could only locate the tech. data sheet.

Glad to hear its working now!
