Hello. I've got a whirlpool ultimate care 2 washer/dryer set.

The washer worked fine until a month ago then, then one day:

1. put the washer on "regular 9"
2. water filled up did it's thing
3. **machine would not advance to next cycle**

So, I went ahead and bypassed the lid switch, to verify that it wasn't the culprit...it wasn't. With the switch shorted, I can lift the lid and watch the entire process...but the machine will still not advance to the next cycle.

4. I purchased a new timer board from this site
5. Installed it.
6. Now, the new timer seems to function completely different. turning the dial to "regular 9" either produces a low buzzing noise or nothing at all. Turning the dial to "off" on the "light wash" area starts a cycle!!
7. IF I can get the washer to begin a cycle it fills up, washes, proceeds to rinse for 30 seconds and then stops...an almost totally different problem.

At least with the old timer I could work the machine manually.

What in the world is going on?! Help please!

Thanks for the reply Sid. I am aware of that awesome return policy...definitely one of the reasons I purchased the part from app.

Model #: LSQ9564J **I think** Where do I find this?

UPDATE: Last night, while fooling around with the timer/washer, I discovered that if I set it to 6/regular on the "delicates" area it will almost complete an entire cycle but then idle and hum when it reaches off...it doesn't spin the clothes to rinse them out.

Setting it to "normal" off starts a cycle and fills the washer with water...I have no idea what it's trying to do.

Ohhh. It's inside the lid...wow

Well, whenever I searched for Whirlpool Ultimate care 2 it always pulled up the piece I ordered.


Upon further inspection, my model number is LSQ9549PW1

Does that use a different piece?

Thanks!

I'll update the thread asap.
