It manages essential functions like filling, washing, draining, and spinning, ensuring optimal performance. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

Washer seems like its stuck in drain cycle, cannot cancel to start another action. Washer starts an action then cuts off.
For model number WTW4957PW0
PartSelect logo
Hello Jimmy, thank you for getting in touch. Your washing machine is likely stuck due to a drain pump issue, a clogged filter or drain hose, or a faulty door switch, which prevents it from moving to the next cycle. Check the lint filter or drain hoses, for any debris or blockage and clear it. A faulty door lock switch, part number PS12704713, can prevent the washer from recognizing the door is closed, which stops it from advancing to the next cycle. If these steps do not help, the drain pump, part number PS11770076, is faulty and will need replacement. We hope this helps.

It stuck on sense fill. After I recalibrated, it started to fill with water but stopped shortly and went to drain mode. When I unplug and replug, the machine itself starts the drain cycle, runs about 3 mins, and stops.

Keep searches simple. Use keywords, e.g. "leaking", "pump", "broken" or "fit".
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.

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.

Waher would not spin and made noise
Removed center cap, loosened center nut, pry lightly up on center plate and tap center nut. Center plate comes loose, remove nut, remove center plate. Pry lock clip out and remove, remove screw with electric impact (screw drive will work, but slower), remove drive hub. Install new drive hub (be sure to check screw hole alignment), install and tighten screws (be sure to follow a skip pattern and bring it down even), install lock clip, install center plate, install and tighten nut, replace center cap. Done!
