One style of this washer has a small board on it called an auto temp sensing board. I wonder if that might be your problem. Sounds to me like it is intermittent from your question and that leads me to believe the board has corrosion on the contacts maybe?

HI,
I have found the possible cause to your fuse problem, I would suggest replacing your lid switch to the unit, this can cause you fuse to blow. Item #3 below is the switch Part# is 22003804, I and hopeful this will correct the problem for you. Is part should con with the Item #7 in the picture also, replace them both, made even be a different color. I think gray is the color right now.
I hope this helps I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gere_bf68e6055dd61249

The only thing that comes to mind is the brake assembly, whether it be the rotor or lining

Does this happen on any water level setting, or just on full load? If the machine is overfilling, the centrifugal force at the start of the spin cycle will throw the water up the sides high enough to overflow the top of the tub.

If the machine is overfilling just a little as I suggest, then the water level switch may be out of calibration or the water level hose may be partially clogged at the tub end. A quick fix in the latter case would be to disconnect the hose from the level switch and blow compressed air through it - it's a lot easier to get into the control panel than the side of the tub. A leaky hose would have a similar effect.

Hi,
Behind that knob is a timer....the switch in that timer is bad and will only make contact when you hold it down.

Replace the timer and you will be good...

its all down to what the cost of the fix will be,,,plus how much use its had,,if its showing its age now, you need to work out yourself if its worth spending your hard earned money on patching it up and it may still pop its socks in a fuw years or buying a nice new one that should give good service,,,plus its nice to show off a new washer to your friends,
you know,,,like,,,look what i got,,,,eat your harts out

There is a two way electronic valve right where the water fils into your tub, check the wires going to it first to see if they are disconnected, most likely the terminal is corroded and no longer able to conduct electricity. A new valve is around $60, I used a screw to make mine work after the terminal broke off from being rusted and to allow us to do laundry while I waited for the part o come in, and it is still working that way a year later, the part is in the box waiting until the valve fails again.

check your hoses if they are switched around..............hot water should be on the left and cold should be on the right...............if all is good, just try and switch it around and check.............the timer should not be a problem for water temps...........usually its the solenoid vavle or the temp switch.............

feed back would be good if this helps anybody........
if anything just message ................

Hi, It's more likely something caught in the pump or bad pump. Remove the belt under the machine and check the pump pulley for noise.
