The washer has power but the fill/sense lite keeps flashing. I unplugged it waited 30 minutes and no change and the lock button keeps engaging the releases. Some times will start to fill but then stops and the light flashes. Now a side note I just moved the washer from Clearwater to my home. I ran into two heavy rain storms. could that be part of the problem. thanks Bill Hartley

Hello Bill, thank you for your question. To fix your whirlpool washer sensing light flashing, reset the appliance. Access the technical datasheet from the console to get the error code. Refer to your instruction manual to troubleshoot/resolve the error. Replace parts if faulty, but first, check for blockages in drain hose or pump. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you.

Can an agitator be installed on this model?

Hi Jim, Thank you for reaching out. Researching this model it only comes equipped with a Washplate, not an Agitator. Thank you for asking!

Water flows under washer onto floor, during first spin cycle.

Hello Victoria, Thank you for the question. This indicates it is leaking while it drains. We suggest checking the Tub to Pump Hose and the Drain Pump for damage. We hope this helps!

My washer stops when it goes from wash to rinse. Rinse button just flashes and nothing happens
For model number WTW4850HW1

Hello Russell, thank you for contacting us. Please check the drain pump, part number PS11770076, and ensure that the machine is draining properly. If the washer is draining properly, the issue is probably related to a defective control board, part number PS16221218. It manages the washer's functions such as filling, washing, draining, and spinning. Customer service is available 7 days a week if you require assistance placing an order. Thanks again for reaching out!

The washer does the whole cycle but someone still soaked the clothes when it’s done. I don’t think it’s spinning.
For model number WTW4850HW1
PartSelect logo
Hello Jacob, thank you for the question. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest replacing the drive clutch kit, part number PS10057144. It attaches to the drive belt and rotates the spin basket drive shaft. We hope this solves your problem!

Hub had warn its grooved teeth off and washer wouldnt agitate
ordered hub and it shipped quickly. I was able to put the hub in place and screw the screws in. you want to tighten them down slowly and go around to each screw tightening a little at a time so you don't break the hub. as you tighten the screws down the hub slides down flush. its impossible to just push the hub on with your hand. Buttoned it back up and got caught up on laundry. good day when the washer is fixed.

Scratches in Surface
This product comes in a bottle with a brush like Liquid Paper. It goes on incredibly easy. A second coat might be needed. I wanted to prevent rust from setting in so I covered the scratches and dings. The paint is a little brighter since my washer is 10 years old but it still looks great.

Noise, grinding sounds. Wash tub stopped turning but motor and cycles kept functioning. Process of elimination, must be the clutch assembly.
Easy, just followed the repair video. Recommend also ordering the drive belt. Bought one locally during my repair.
