  • This might be random, but...I had one of these washers (Exactly like this one) until earlier this year. Previously, when entering the spin cycle, it would drain completely before it started spinning. Then last winter, something happened, and it would begin spinning when the drum was still full of water. It would still drain normally, but it just would no longer wait until it was empty before starting to spin. It's been replaced, but just curiosity on my part...what would cause such an oddity?

  • @bigloudnoise There's some kind of solenoid that shifts it from drain to spin. I know if it starts to drain and then the lid id lifted the solenoid trips and it will spin drain. That would be my guess anyway.

  • Tub Capacity? (cubic feet)

  • @amberlynn6914 3.0 cubic feet I believe...

  • Is that agitator a dual action agitator?

  • @NVHSChadSheppard1 yes, it i dual action

see all

  • @grandcarriage1 ...sorry. worn, not warn.

  • @hoover1060 ...I actually just read about this, and you have it exactly right... The solenoid becomes corroded and warn due to the mechanism of these machines and the humid environment.

  • @dualactionsurgilator can't tell by looking at the agitator!

  • @mark40511 , They've always made them, unfortunately now they also make Maytag, Jenn-Air and some KitchenAid items

  • @nicenonya3 You are confusing a BD design for a DD design. Direct Drive WP machines had no wig wag.

  • opps,thought this was a belt drive,these look a lot like the last of the belt drives,circa 1985-6?

  • @hoover1060 The lid switch controls power to the wig-wag,when you open the lid it goes dead and the spin cam slides forward and raises the clutch off the drive pulley and engages the brake.

  • @kc5vgw hard to say,sounds like the cam bar busted,easy fix

  • @dualactionsurgilator these washers didn't have neutral transmissions,they use WIG-WAGs to move cam bars back and forth to engage the pump/spin or gears to agitate
