Washer won't start. Replaced the door switch, but it still won't start. Once when I tried to start it the remaining cycle timer kept scrolling. Answer?
For model number WM2487HWMA
Hi Gerhard,
Thank you for your question. If the washer will not start, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the door lock assembly, the rotor position sensor assembly, the drain pump and motor assembly, the clamp assembly and the power cord assembly. We hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day.

When washer is spinning it is extremely loud and when it finished the cycle there was a small amount of smoke coming out of the front when I opened the door. Once it cooled off I turned it on and everything seems to be working except the spinning part? What parts will fix this problem?
For model number WM2487HWMA
Hello Maggie, thank you for your question. We have researched your model and found that the issue is probably with the rotor assembly, part number PS3522944. If that does not take care of the issue, then the problem is most likely to be related to the rotor position sensor, part number PS3529186. If you require assistance placing an order, please contact customer service. We hope that helps!
Removed the top of the washer by removing the 4 back screws and 2 small brackets. Then I removed the front panel, this was actually the hardest part, 2 screws and 8 tabs that you pop out carefully from the top of the panel. I only disconnected the power button and was able to rest the panel on top of the washer. The rest of the washer came apart quickly just moving down the front of the washer and removing the door, latch, tub gasket, drain cover. Removing the pump was just a mater of disconnecting the drain hoses, and one clip under the drain assembly. 3 screws attach the drain to assembly to the pump and only 2 wires that are clearly marked. Reassembly is just going back through in reverse order of disassenbly. The best thing about this is that it all comes apart with a standard phillips screwdriver.
I first tested the motor per the service manual. I checked the resistance between the terminals of the 3 pin connector. It's supposed to be 5-15 ohms. The motor checked out so I replaced the main electrical board. It turns out that wasn't the problem. After a brief web search I found out that the hall sensor (which is attached to the motor stator) was the likely cause of the failure. I replaced that and everything works great now. And now I have a spare main board in case that ever fails. I also want to mention that I took the time to remove the dispenser box (where the water comes in and is directed to the different cleaning products) and cleaned it with a very strong bleach solution. It got rid of the mildew and funky smell. It seems that the fabric softener caused a lot of mildew to form inside the dispenser directly above the fabric softener tray. The bleach took care of that. This is probably something that should be done routinely to keep the mildew from forming.
Pull washer away from wall. Unplug cord and remove drain hose from receptacle. Remove 4 screws holding panel to rear of washer. Squeeze and slide back hose clamps on each end of drain hose and loosen center clamp with screwdriver. Remove old hose. Reinstall new hose in reverse order using existing clamps. Re-install back panel.
