I had found similar topics on this subject but not for the same model number washer. The unit stops during the wash as soon as it hits the rinse cycle and the water drains. It hums a little but nothing else. I am wondering what the issue may be.

I apologize if this question has already been answered, truly.

Hi,

The washer uses cold water for the rinse cycle. Could be that it's not getting any cold water because the screen in the water inlet valve is plugged or the water valve is bad and needs to be replaced.

To check the screens in the water inlet valve you need to turn the hot and cold water inlet hoses off and remove them from the back of the washer. You will then be able to look into the water inlet valve and see the screens to see if they are plugged up.

To check the water inlet valve to see if it's bad you would check the coils for continuity with a ohm meter.

This video will show you how to replace the water inlet valve.
