I have a ge top load washer, that came with my manufacture home, i can't find the manual or don't even know where to look for a product #, my problem, my knob switch, won't stay out when a washing cycle has been selected, it tends to go back in, i either have to place something between the knob to keep it from going in and stopping the cycle. it seems like i have to push in the cover that has the arrow and then it starts up again, but let it go and it stops. i am really clueless and tired of having to keep checking the washer and if it is stopped, carefully pulling the knob til it catches and hope it lasts through the cycle. if needed to replace the knob how much does it run
Model number is on the top of the control panel on a white or silver sticker. It sounds like you have a bad timer, probably about $100 for the timer, maybe a little less.

I don't think the problem lies with the dryer, I would suspect the washer has mold, this is especially true on front load washer, they make products designed just for this problem, check with a large retailer, not sure who makes the mold and mildew remover, I think Home Depot or Lowes may have the product or know about it..
Methinks you could do with a manual- for now and later!
Now- unfortunately FixYa cannot provide manuals direct - members of the forum are just people from all over the world, probably working from home, and not representing any particular manufacturer ;-0)
Manual
You will need to type into your search engine/web browser '(make model number) washer manual' and you should be presented with a number of sources from which you can either download for free or have to pay a nominal amount.
You could also try the manufacturer's web site direct ;-0)
If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck!

there should be two screwws in the door jam on the front panel, they hold the top down
once you remove those slide the top backwards then lift up
let me know if its the belt
Dont know if you can purchase these. First people to try are the manufactures. Otherwise, unscrew the two screws at the rear top of machine and pull backwards to remove top.Then pack some towells or rugs around the drum then replace top. Don,t forget to remove rugs at new home.!! Good luck on your move.
Own a Kenmore? Department store brands can be a pain as it is difficult to figure out which manufacture has made your product. This link here should help to find out which manufacture has made your Kenmore Appliance.
Is your washer a GE Profile Harmony? Do you want to know how to take the top off or the top of the agitor (pulsator)? The top of the washer has four screws in the back top behind the screen once you unscrew them the front of the washer has two clips one on each side and you have to kinda tap it with your palm to get them to pop.
Your washer obviously has been over-loaded. It trips the spin switch & prevents top-speed spinning. See that you load within the machine's user manual load, not more. You can even weigh your laundry before loading to see that you dont over-load. Also see that the laundry is evenly placed within the bucket. These are suggestions.
