Jeff, sounds like the timer, a bad contact. Start it, cancel it, and start it again and see what it does. Terry you are too funny! Bobby in Boston | ||

We're all on the lookout for a Hobart KA for Terry to relieve him of his lackluster GE tall-tub so everyone keep an eye open for a nice one! We sure are. Jeff like Greg says it sounds like the timer. I suspect the cam follower bar in the timer for the motor has warped slightly from dirty contacts. The timer needs to be opened up, the contact gently sanded, cleaned and bent back ever so slightly. Are timers for a vintage but not too vintage model KA like this still available from Whirlpool???? | ||

EEEEEKKKKK!!!!! Its NOT the timer... I just installed the new timer I have, and test ran it through a rinse & hold cycle. It does the same thing... motor runs, fill starts, motor cuts out, fill completes, silence, then proceeds.... I am at a loss... | ||

its in the pre-wash detergent cup I took the door apart, and found that the little hook thing that lets the soap dispenser open is broken... Are these little metal things easy to find? | ||

Great minds... Think Alike! Hoover, replace the bad one and get a spare! or replace them both and save the old one as a spare! Let either of us know if you cant get them locally! But seeing how popular they are, you should not have any problem getting them from Whirlpool or a place like Marcone. | ||
