The lid periodically will not lock causing the washer cycle to not start. I will hold the start button a few times and eventually it will indicate locked and work. We have had the washer for less than a year and have had no problems until now. It started a week ago and has happened more often.

The washer sometimes will not spin all the water out of the clothes
For model number WTW8040DW4

Hello Steve, thank you for your inquiry. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the drain hose for clogging. If this is not the case, we would recommend checking the drain pump, part number PS11738156, to solve the problem. It removes water from the washer during the drain portion of the cycle. We hope this solves your problem!

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.

Replace Cracked Whirlpool Cabrio Washing Machine Lid
This is a very simple repair. My lid was severely cracked on the back left corner where there seems to be a lot of pressure/torque required to shut the lid. There is a metal L-shaped "tab" that inserts into the lid on both sides of the back edge of the lid. The lid is attached to these metal tabs with two screws for each side. My cracked lid had resulted in the lid breaking off of the metal tab with the screws still anchored into the metal tab.

Make sure screws have been removed from the metal tabs on both sides. Do not remove metal tabs- leave them attached to the washing maching (otherwise, you will not be able to attach the lid back onto the machine). Slide the lid over the tabs. There are square-shaped spaces along the edge of the lid where the tabs slide into the lid. Re-screw the screws into the lid, attaching the lid to the tabs through pre-drilled holes on the sides of the lid. It may take a little time to make sure the screws are properly inserted into the lid and tab screw holes. Tighten up and you're finished.
