I have a Kitchen Aid clothes washer that does not spin the clothes as dry as it should. I ran the washer with the lid open and noted that it dumped in some fresh water for a fraction of a second towards the very end of the final spin cycle. No wonder the loads come out wetter than they should. I reran the final spin cycle and watched as it dumped in water for 2-3 seconds midway during the spin cycle and then another short fraction-of-a-second burst just before the very end of the cycle.

What would cause this? Any ideas? Thanks.
