I feel you may have a Control Board issue. I would see if the Control Board will let you into Service Mode. If it does I would read the Diag code blocks 1 thru 40. The block only show up when an error event has been logged.

Bottom line I see no easy way out without least swapping out the Control Board for a start point.

You will need the FAV6800A/FAV9800A Service Manual to get started. See page 17 of the SM TO READ THE Diag codes

FAV6800A/FAV9800A Service Manual for reference. Sears Parts Direct for reference.

Here is a quick start if the Control Board will let you into Service Mode;
To enter Service Mode press and hold simultaneously the Enviro Plus and Spin Only keys until the machine beeps and the LED display reads 00.


From the Service Manual;

Display Diagnostic Codes
The diagnostic code display can be toggled on and off from Service Mode by pressing the Wrinkle Control key. The display will show a “d”. The diagnostic codes can be viewed by using the Set Delay Time arrow keys. The Set Delay Time down arrow key will cycle down the list one code at time each time it is pushed. The Set Delay Time up arrow key will cycle up the list one code each time it is pushed. The first time the Set Delay Time down arrow key is pushed, the newest code will be displayed. A code generated during or after the current cycle will be displayed with the rightmost dot “.” turned ON. Access Other Features While a diagnostic code is displayed, if the Normal

If you decide to give it a try jot down the code blocks and toss them back to us for review.

Swan sw2061w runs cycle then the end light and 60 wash lights flash continuous but door won't open?

This is normally a blockage in the pump / filter, or waste pipe, Turn the machine off, then put some towels on the floor, to catch waste water, then remove cover from bottom (or open hatch), behind is a knob, unscrew this and the water will run out, check for any obstructions in the know side and inside, if nothing, put back together and then, put the washing machine out, and check the waste pipe for blockages, pull the pipe out, look inside both pipes and if clear put back in. refit as was and then try machine again!
if it was this simple problem then you have just made a simple fix, pat yourself on the back.
should be able to restart the machine and it may start to run or set it to spin again and it should finish this time
Enjoy
One other thing is a bad load in the washing machine, normally when you have bulky items in like think blankets, that can not balance out the drum, if you have these items in there, try a slower spin speed, next time, with this type of load, wash without spinning.
If the same time to call an engineer!

Dishwasher wont finish any cycles

That blinking light is trying to tell you that there is something wrong with the dishwasher. You need to fix the problem or else that blinking light will come back. And the number of times it blinks (before it pauses and repeats) will tell you (or a technician) what is wrong. How many times does it blink?

I am just trying to figure out how many cubic feet my whirlpool calypso washer (model gvw9959kq2) is? Thank you.

The 3.5 cu ft Whirlpool GVW9959K is a unique washing machine that is Energy Star Qualified. It features the Calypso technology which helps prevent piling, shrinking and provides excellent stain removal. Save money and energy (up to $100 in utility bill savings) with this Energy Star Quiet Wash washer. The multiple cycles which include the hand washables cycle, the wool cycle, the bulky items cycle, give you the many options you need in determining the right cycle for your laundry. Automatic water level settings, multiple wash/spin speed combinations, 5 wash/rinse temperature combinations, and stainless steel wash basket with limited lifetime warranty are just some of the many reasons why this washer is the best choice for you. However the washer has a quirkiness also. They tend eat garments from time to time and take a dump when overdosed on detergent. The basket is suspended on four rods and is easily removed for servicing the motor and pump. The pump has a motor mounted on it. The whole time the washer is in motion water is continually poured over the clothes. It has a heck of a spin cycle at the end. Theory of operation, how to operate, repair and diagnose them fault does is HERE in the service manual.

Will not spin,

Is the Delicate or Hand Washables cycle selected?
Spin speeds can vary by the cycle that is selected. Your washer is designed so that in certain cycles, such asDelicate or Hand Washables cycles, the spin speeds are slower. In these cycles, more water is retained in the load at the end of the cycle to keep delicate fabrics from shrinking and wrinkling. Select the appropriate cycle based on the fabric being washed.
Was an Extra Low, Low or No Spin option selected?
Select the highest spin speed for the fabric being washed. If extra low spin or no spin was selected, the washer may not remove enough water from the load.
Were you washing one bulky item, such as a rug or large blanket?
Consider adding more items to help balance the load during spin. Select $FL-drainspin cycle and restart the washer. Your washer is designed to detect an unbalanced load and automatically lower the spin speed. Unbalanced conditions are more likely to occur with a single, bulky item.
Are excessive suds present?
Use only HE High Efficiency detergent. Using non-HE detergent or more than the manufacturer's recommended amount of detergent can cause excessive suds. The excess suds can cause the washer to run at a reduced spin speed, which will result in very wet loads.
See also: Why HE High Efficiency detergent is required.
Is the drain hose kinked or is the drain clogged?
Make sure the drain hose is not kinked. Straighten the hose for adequate water flow. Remove any blockage from the drainpipe or utility sink. Use the U-shaped drain hose form on the drain hose, and secure the drain hose. See the Installation Instructions for details; find them by entering your model number in the Manual and Literature search below.
Is the end of the drain hose more than 96" (244 cm) above the floor?
The drainpipe (standpipe) height requirements are: 96" (244 cm) maximum and 30" (76.2 cm) minimum. Your washer will not be able to adequately pump the water out of the washer if the drainpipe (standpipe) exceeds 96" (244 cm). In this case, the water may flow back into the washer. See the Installation Instructions for details; find them by entering your model number in the Manual and Literature search below.
Is your outlet voltage low?
Check electrical source or call an electrician.

Changed Electronic control on Kenmore dishwaser

Sounds like wsh motor is not running. Test cycle by pushing in order: hi temp, air dry, hi-temp, air-dry. All lites come on and unit will run. Should hear motor running when 'washing' light is on. If not then motor is bad or something stuck in impeller area. Please leave feedback.

Whirlpool Cabrio WTW6600SW1: Won't drain

The washer drew half a tub of water on the "Bulky items" cycle, and stopped. All the lights on the cycle dial light up and flash, the machine beeps and the me error message in the "estimated time remaining" field is "Ld". I've tried to shut the machine down and change the cycle to "drain and spin" but it will not agitate, won't drain or spin.
