Plug off the wall; open up behind. You will find a thin hose running from the switch area to the outlet area. Carefully try the hose clip to remove the hose from the top, blow into it - it should be free. Free it by removing anything blocking it, usually some dirt from below; the hose should not be kinked. Refix. This is the water level hose, which signals the machine to start or stop water.

This is usually a symptom of a pressure switch malfunction. The pressure switch is located in the operator console behind the load (or water) level knob. It is cylindrical in shape and
has an electrical connection and an air hose attached to it. In many
cases, the only problem is that the air hose has come loose and fallen
off the fitting on the pressure switch. All you have to do is reattach it. HINT: placing a small zip tie around the air hose where it connects onto the pressure switch will create enough resistance to keep the hose from vibrating loose again. Just a snug fit will do. Over tightening can break the fitting on the pressure switch. You will need to open the
console and inspect it. To open the console, it comes off in a few
different ways depending on the year and model of the washer:
1.
If you have removable end caps on the console, they simply pry off by
lifting from the the back exposing a screw under either end. Remove the
screws and the console lifts up.
2. If the end caps do not come
off, place a putty knife in the front corner of either end of the
console where it meets the washer top and push in while lifting up.
This depresses a retaining clip and the console will lift up.
3. Some consoles have a screw located on either side in the back that you need to remove and it will then lift up.
Be
careful when you lift the console. There are small plastic hinges
holding it in place and they can break if you aren't careful. Place the
console in its resting position by laying it over the back of the
washer. The pressure switch will be easily accessible. Double check the
hose like I previously stated and double check to make sure all the
electrical connections are in place.
If you check the switch and
find that everything is in place as it should be, you may have to
replace the switch. Post back with your COMPLETE model number (located
around the rim of the washer tub opening) and I can track down a part
number for you.
I hope this helps.
