Whirlpool Washer HELP !!!

Washer washes fine but when it gets to the rinse cycle it stops working , I replaced the timer $135 still, when it gets to the rinse cycle it stops working , I was told to replace the water inlet valve, Replaced it $20 Still, when it gets to the rinse cycle it stops working, Any ideas?

NOTE: After reading other posts in the forum I checked the Lid Switch and it is broken, I taped the wires together and problem solved, it is the lid switch. I just wish I would have figured that out $155 dollars ago. Now I need to invest another $27 on a new switch

Well glad you got it fixed. Any competent repair person should have known to tell you to check the lid switch as the first thing. The inlet valves is a total non-starter, don’t know why you were told about them.

Sorry you had a bad experience, but at least now you know how to repair this machine.

Good luck going forward

I have the same issue, replaced timer twice, wired the lid switch together, all cycle work except the rinse cycle. Any suggestion?

And yes, I can verify unplugging before touching wires, burnt my trigger finger, now that was a dumb move, haha
