Maytag Washer never stops running, goes from 1 cycle to the next

I have 2 problems w/my Maytag Washing Machine model #LAT8608AAW -- 1st the knob for the cycles keeps moving even after a cycle is complete, so it goes from one cycle to the next without stopping. Also, it agitates the clothes even when the washer is filling up with water.

The timer is not stopping the agitate mode. And the timer is suppose to have its own off setting at the end of cycles. Suspect pretty strongly that the timer is at fault. Cant say for sure without looking at a wire diagram and eliminating any other controls.

If this helps you please rate me as high as possible.
If it doesn't help you please rediscribe your problem in more detail to help me understand, post back and I will follow up.

Washer didnt fill when turned on, but filled when holding "reset"

sounds like your water level switch is bad OR the small hose that goes from the waterlevel switch to the bottom of the tank has a hole in it.Try replacing this small hose first.you can go to an auto parts store and match it up.it's usually about 3' long and about 1/4" inside diameter and about 99cents a foot.

Maytag mah4000aww wont stop running.

It sounds like your timer needs to be replaced. The timer runs the washing machine in a pre-determined pattern. It provides the electricity to all of the washing machine components at the correct time and for the correct length of time.

Maytag Washing Machine Cycles Out of Sync with Dial

ive fixed lots off washers over the years[15,000 service calls] and was careful while taking parts off if i wasn't fulmilure with that model,but most timers and knobs have a key way so the knob can only go on one way.if thats not true for you, try this.turn the timer shaft till the washer is at the end of the wash cycle.[finished the load,it would be the final spin ,maybe five minutes long.when thats done the timer advances to off]now knowing that thats an off position set on your knob and then manuly turn it to the off position of the next cycle if it wont run you did it. if not you will have to go to the end of that cycle and remove knob and set to next notch in the knob,until you find the sweet spot.hope this helps God bless,tom
