Honestly don't know age of machine...When started before work in the morning, it is still stumbling with multiple starts/stops at the end of the day. Eventually it finishes, and console declares "clean". Dispenser opens, it does clean, just takes all day.

I would check your hot water temperature. Try raising it to 130 degrees.

replace the thermal fuse its probaly not working right or the door switch is faulty and they are cheaper then the console.. the temp of water gets hot from the heating element inside it. but if your not getting enough current thru to run it then thermal fuse is going out it only is about 15.00 . also try running the light wash see how that does .

Not only did you give bad advice fiest63, but the guy never got timely advice and probably allready drop kicked it out of the house.

[feisty63]

Richappy why would you say i gave bad advise i was not aware your the only one who can give good advise and be right about it. excuse me for trying to help.. is this not a help forum. i don't see anything wrong with answering people even if it was not timely you never know if them people return . so sorry if you don't like my response. but i have worked on many things around the house and i don't claim to know everything about appliances but im not dumb either Richappy.

Feisty63 - i also have been told i've given bad advice but did not take it as an insult but rather an opportunity to keep my posts in check and only post advice if i'm pretty certain it is the right advice or at least clearly state that i am not positive and they may want to wait for another opinion from someone more knowledgeable before replacing parts. most advice forums that are connected with parts suppliers are known for giving bad advice on purpose just to sell some parts. this site on the contrary will trouble shoot until they are certain that that is the part that needs replaced. Any person that posts a problem with their appliance could mistake you for an employee of app and if the advice is bad then they could have a bad taste in their mouth for the company. I believe richappy was not only informing you that it was bad advice but also the original poster so they did not spend money that could have been saved for the correct fix.

i don't claim to know it all nor do i say im a technican i just say what to try most things i say do not cost money. I use the common since rule . if you have read some of my post you will understand me better . i mean no harm i only suggest things that are possible to check for people whom don't know what common things to check first. i am a women that has managed a home for 30 yrs and i have a husband that is a mechanic so I do know more than the average women does about these things. like it or not ,, peace out...

OK Feisty, I have been fixing washers for 23 years and you come on this forum pretending to know all about fixing appliances.
Well said msg. Qtip, I appreciate the support.
Again Feisty, If I find your future comments to be worthless/dangerous, I will ask that you be banned from this site!!.
