What Makes Whirlpool Washer Repairs Different

Both top and front load models will only run their spin when the lid or door switch registers the lid or door as fully closed and latched. Source: Whirlpool - Top Load Washer not Draining, not Spinning, and/or Leaving Wet Loads

Some models sense load size before filling, tumbling or spinning the drum briefly, and then set the water volume to match, so a partly filled tub is often normal. Source: Whirlpool - Why won't my washing machine fill with water

What Whirlpool Says to Check First

• Washer won't start. Check that the washer is plugged in and the breaker has not tripped, turn off the control lock if it is on, and reset the washer by cutting power for at least a minute. Source: Whirlpool - How to reset a washing machine
• Washer not filling. Make sure both hot and cold supply valves are fully open, the fill hoses are not kinked, and the inlet screens are not clogged with sediment. Source: Whirlpool - Why won't my washing machine fill with water
