  5. What should I do if my washer does not start?

    If your washer does not start, it might be due to one of the following reasons:

    • The wash cycle is in a pause stage. This is normal—a pause occurs between the wash and spin cycles, with a longer pause occurring during the soak cycle. Normal pauses also occur as part of the reverse tumbling action of a Front Load washer.
    • The cycle selector knob is not quite to the start position. To ensure it’s correctly positioned, turn the knob or dial slightly past your desired start position, then pull it out to start the washer.
    • The power cord may not be plugged in, or the connection may be loose. Check to be sure the plug fits tightly into the wall outlet. Note: Do not use an extension cord. Depending on the quality of the extension cord and the length, the power actually getting to the washer may be greatly reduced and not allow the washer to perform properly.
    • The door or lid of the washer is open. For your safety, the door or lid of your washer must be completely closed for the washer to fill, tumble or agitate, and spin.
    • A fuse is blown in your home, or a circuit breaker tripped. If this is the case, reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse (but do not increase the fuse capacity). If you have an overloaded circuit, contact a qualified electrician to correct it.
    • The motor is overheated. Your washer’s motor will stop if it becomes overheated, then automatically restart after a cool-down period of up to 30 minutes (if the timer has not been manually turned off). If problem continues, contact us for service.
    • A power outage has occurred. In this case, you might want to call your local electric company.
