Help!!!!!

I too experienced similar situations with 2 Whirlpool washers that will function on only 2 of 3 wash cycles(regular or casaual). Everything checked out and by accident I touched the wiring harness in the control panel and that solved the problem. Turned out another identical unit has the same problem. Problems solved. The model is Whirlpool Wasehr model LSR5132 fr the forumers' information.
