Clean filter is this causes the machine to stop

When it stops try wiggling the timer knob if you get it to start most likely have a timer problem not connecting inside the timer. Hope this helps

timmer motor out

The timer mechanism is faulty. The timer is the mechanical computer of any washing machine. It simply works by connecting different circuits together for a predetermined time. If a particular cycle isn't working, the timer unit will need to be replaced. You can manually advance the timing unit by pulling out the knob in the middle of the unit, rotate the dial to the desired cycle then push the knob in- that will start that cycle. Good luck, Jim

Hi. your problem is actually a rather complicated one.

Timer and selector switches The timer switch is usually the largest dial on the main control panel. It can be either a mechanical device much like a simple clock, or completely electronic with just a digital readout.

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.

The Start switch is usually part of the timer knob. When you set the timer to the proper cycle, you either pull or push the timer knob to start the cycle.

The selector switches or knobs vary from machine to machine. Most washing machines have one or several switches or knobs on the control panel besides the Timer/Start switch. These let you adjust certain settings; for example, the water temperature, spin speed, timer cycle, and so on. Normally, the washing machine completes the cycle selected on the timer, regardless of how you set these switches and knobs.

OK, what you are experiencing is a timer mechanism fault. the timer motor is malfunctioning. anytime you have to manually advance the timer knob, this will signal a fault within the control mech. this is easily fixed by, replacing the timer control module. i will place a link to the actual part needed to fix this issue. you can also purchase this timer on line at this site if you wish.

Hi, the timer control module is malfunctioning. simply replacing this device will fix this Minor interruption.

this can be two issues. One could be the control knob. there could be a malfunction here. secondly, you may have a faulty water valve assembly. the relay or solenoid may need to be replaced. i would start with the control knob.
