Know Your Whirlpool Washer
How Whirlpool Washers Are Built
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 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
- Washer not spinning. Redistribute an unbalanced or overloaded load, cut back on detergent to avoid excess suds, and remember delicate cycles spin slowly. Source: Whirlpool - Front Load Washer is not Draining, not Spinning, or Leaving Wet Loads
