Roper washing machine whines intermittently throughout the entire wash, rinse and drain cycle.

I've replaced the pump about a year ago, and just recently replaced the agitator cogs. It works now, but it's also started agitating me by whining so much. Any ideas where to look? The motor is directly coupled to the transmission and the drain pump, no belts as far as I can tell. I can't look under the machine while it's running to pinpoint where the sound is coming from. Any ideas?

My Roper washing machine keeps filling and draining in the final rinse cycle.The lid lock light flashes and the machine will not complete the wash cycle, just keeps filling, spinning and draining!

Depending on your model, it will either have an electronic or mechanical timer. If electronic which it sounds like, you likely have a bad board or control unit. If mechanical you will need a new timer.

My old washer was mechanical and I had to replace the timer several times over 18 years. My new Samsung is all digital so when it goes bad, will have to diagnose the circuit that needs replacing. Normally there is an error code on the LCD readout.

I'm not familiar with roper washing machines so I'll ask the question does it have two fill hoses. Most European machines now only have one fill. If it has two then it sound like the machine takes the initial water from the one fill and the rinse cycle water from another. The humming sounds like the valve for the other fill needs replacing. These are quite inexpensive and easy to fit. Power off.. remove lid ....switch of water...take out valve when you establish which one is affected and replace

My roper washer will not drain and rinse. I hear light ticking but will mot drain and rinse on any cycle wash. I've tried several times to restart the wash cycle on all cycle but getting same results.

I suspect your lid switch is broken:

Hello my Roper washing machine is not switching

Check your lid switch. That is what controls the spin and drain cycle.

Sounds like siphoning. This can happen if your drain pipe is too low and you run the drain hose right into it, or if there isn't any kind of air gap between the drain hose and pipe. Usually it shows up when trying to fill for the rinse cycle - it drains as fast as it fills. Or it might not fill at all. Order a "siphon break kit". They're cheap and easy to install

Kenmore washer - water won't drain. It stops

If the water drains between the wash and rinse cycles, your motor and pump are probably OK. If this is a machine with a dial, try a different cycle, like normal instead of heavy duty. If that works and the machine completes the entire cycle then the timer probably has a bad spot. You might try to find a replacement timer if that is the case although I didn't have any luck with my 10 year old washing machine. Best of luck

Aeg 72630 update will not rinse during rinse cycle

If the drain lines were plugged, there may have been enough pressure on the pump to fault out. Make sure the sewer line is completely open, as well as the lines at the pump.
