My Whirlpool Ultimate Care II Heavy Duty Super Capacity Plus Washer (Top-Load) will not work in the Rinse Cycle. It completed the wash cycle, but will not advance to the rinse cyle. The tub is full of water. I tried to manually turn the knob to the rinse cycle, but the washer will only make a slight humming noise for a few seconds, but still doesn't do anything. Any suggestions?

Hi Missfixit Real good chance it's your lid switch. Hope so, cause the repair is easy and inexpensive. To test, you want to by-pass the lid switch. Unplug the machine (I always forget to say that) Take the two screws out where the console is screwed to the top and flip the top back. You will see a plastic connector connecting wires from the console to a a plastic connector going into the top. Disconnect this connector and insert an insulted, solid wire into the two out terminal holes on the connector coming from the console. Plug the machine back in, turn the selector to spin and see if it spins. If it does, replace the lid switch. Here is your part. Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL LSQ8243HQ0 | AppliancePartsPros.comGood luck and let us know how it turns out.

If the machine will agitate, drain and spin in the wash cycle but not in the rinse cycle then you do not have any mechanical problems with the washer, so the problem is probably in the timer.
If you need more info please post a full model number so we can see exactly which machine you have.

Similar problem here. It fills up with water, agitates(washes), drains then stops at the rinse cycle. It just makes a low humming noise and never makes it past it. I moved it forward to the spin cycle and that works. Just need to get the rinse process working. The model #LSQ8543JQ0. Any help would be appreciated. I am amateur at fixing things just to let you know so hopefully something easy!!

If your machine is ok operationally then the problem can probably be solved by replacing the timer. Before you do so, take off the connections and clean the contacts with contact cleaner and reseat. If that does not fix things, try replacing the timer, this part here. Part number: AP3020198
