Default Washer will fill with water and begin to agitate and that is all that it dose
Brand: General Electric
Model Number: WPSQ4160T5W
Age: 5 - 10 years

Hello,
I put the dirty close into the washer machine and trun the control knob to small med or large load. The tub fills up with water and washer begins to agitates.
With the lid up I can see the close washing... Now with the lid down, now remember, close are still washing. The timmer switch dose not move. I
have change the timmer switch twice already and still having the same problem.
I don't feel like it is the lid switch because the washer still works in the other cycles if I turn the control knob manually.
Now If I turn the control knob manually to spin, drain or rinse cycles the washer machine works.

***The problem that I am having is when I put close in washer and turn on, water fills the tub and it starts to agitate. Now lets say that I walk away and come back in about 30 minutes or so, the timmer is still in the start location and machine is still agitating.

Again if I stop the machine and turn the control knob the washer begins to spin and water drains out. But I'm having to do this manually.

Has anybody ever had this problem or know of this problem?
How can I fix this problem?

Thanks,

Art

Default

It is likely the program switch that is not sending the command to the timer to change the cycle.

Here is a link to to your washer model WPSQ4160T5Ww.
