I have a Samsung WA13V5 washing machine - top loader. How much waterwill I use in total when washing on mid ?
SOURCE: washing machine stopped working mid cycle
First, if you have not done so already, plug something else into the outlet to make sure there is power. If there is power, try other positions of the timer knob to see if there is any reaction. You can drain the tub by lowering the drain hose. If there is a floor drain available, just allow it to drain into that. If no floor drain is available, you could try a large bucket, which you may have to empty a few times. With the tub partially drained, turn back to the wash cycle to see if the solenoid valves will open to fill. Just a quick test, don't refill the tub. If the soleniods will open, then there is power to the machine, and there is a problem at the motor. In which case, you may just have a wire broken off of a terminal at the motor (since that is a moving part) or you may have a bad lid switch, or lastly the timer.

If the water stops when you stop the cycle, then the pressure sensor is at fault. If you need to turn the water supply off to stop it, then the water inlet valve is at fault.
This would be a major undertaking and requires special tools. Your washer has a "Clean Tub" cycle which you should use instead, as instructed, with a special purpose detergent such as (many alternatives are available)

You may need to do this twice over if the washer has not so been treated for a while.
If you are saying you have done this and it did not succeed, seek specialist advice from Samsung support.
Each water inlet has its own filter where the hoses connect to the washing machine. Make sure that the filters are cleaned properly sometimes, these filters gets blocked if dirt or debris like rust came through the water system.
