Hi I can’t really figure out what is going on from your description of the problem.
Assuming the machine goes through the wash cycle agitating fine when it goes to drain both wigwag solenoid‘s are off there shouldn’t be any buzzing there the agitate solenoid on the right side looking in from the rear should D energize the cam bar should move forward and switch the pump into a drain mode the machine should pump out for either two or four minutes depending on the model, after that the spin solenoid on the left side would be energized causing the cam bar to move to the rear and start the clutch engagement and caused the machine to spin . Take another look and see if you can give me a better description I might be able to tell you what’s wrong. |

Hi Don, we’re starting to get somewhere, what do you mean that the machine recirculate for a while does this washer have a manual lint filter that water continues to come through?
It sounds like you might have a bad water pump, but that does not explain why the motor would stop the motor should not stop until the machine goes to refill for the rinse cycle assuming it emptied in the first place. Is the machine draining at all? It’s always helpful if you post the model number so we could tell exactly what machine we’re trying to help you with Thanks we will get to the bottom of this. John L |
