Question about Whirlpool LTE5243D Top Load Stacked Washer/Dryer
I was told that the timer went out on my washer so I replaced that today and its still having the same problem. It will start to run like normal and then about 3 minutes in the cycle it will stop. I can change the dial to the Rinse cycle and it will again run about 5 minutes and then stop and it won't even go on the Spin cycle. Is there anyone that can help? Please let me know. My email address is [email protected]
It almost sounds like your motor is kicking out on overload. The fact that it starts agitating after the fill can rule out the pressure switch. You have installed a new timer so we should be able to rule that out. It's possible that your pump is binding, which is attached directly to your motor and causing it to overheat. To tell for sure you would have to check the motor to see if it's getting power when it cuts out. Check your terminal block where the power cord comes in to see if all connections are secure. Other possibilities could be the clutch and brake assy. With out being there too see the problem, this is where I would start.

Also carefully feel the motor housing to see if its overheating as it should get warm to the touch but not HOT HOT.

My problem is that the tub seems to be too loose and out of balance no matter how big or small the load.
the washer works fine but the dryer will just stop after a few minutes
My problem is that the tub is out of balance and the spin cycle doesn't work anymore.
It will start to run like normal and then about 3 minutes in the cycle it will stop. I can change the dial to the Rinse cycle and it will again run about 5 minutes and then stop and it won't even go on the Spin cycle.
