Whirlpool AWM323 Fault

[DavidL]

Looking for some help. A coin was in the drain pump of the machine which I have now removed but the machine will now only fill and not start the washing cycle. If I turn the program s/w to drain manually the machine will pump out the water but still the machine will not begin the wash cycle. I have check the pressure s/w and it looks okay.

Any ideas ? Thanks for the help.

will it spin?

Nope. The program starts by taking in water then the machine just sits. If I move the program s/w on manually through the programs it will only ever pump water out. It never starts a wash cycle or starts a spin cycle.

Any idea ? Thnaks for your response.

if it wont spin / move at all it is one of 3 things

motor "area"

fill "area"

something else

as it doesnt move at all, i would ask that you unplug m/c and check motor connections, it sounds like that in getting to the pump you have disslodged a connection, be it to the motor or its control board.

also is the drive belt still around the ferris (wheel) really its called a pulley, but i prefer ferris

there was also a "unique feature" on one m/c that if the overheat stat went the cold fill valve wouldnt work, so you may want to check all connections while you are at it, but do UNPLUG m/c FIRST
