Westinghouse Washing Machine Not Completing Cycle – Hollywell

Westinghouse Washing Machine Not Completing Cycle – Hollywell

A customer in Hollywell contacted ISB Electrical because their Westinghouse top loader washing machine stopped in the middle of the cycle and would not complete the program. Water remained inside the tub, and the machine would not drain properly.

When a washing machine stops mid-cycle with water still inside, the most common cause is a drainage fault. The problem can be caused by a blocked pump, faulty drain pump, blocked drain hose, wiring issue, lid switch fault or control board problem. Proper diagnosis is important before replacing parts.

Inspection and Diagnosis

• Checked the washing machine power supply and basic operation
• Confirmed the top loader stopped in the middle of the cycle
• Checked the water level remaining inside the tub
• Tested the drain cycle and listened for pump operation
• Inspected the drain hose and laundry waste connection
• Checked the drain pump area for blockage or obstruction
• Tested the water pump operation
• Confirmed the drainage fault before advising repair options

Fault Found

The fault was caused by a faulty water pump. The washing machine could wash and fill, but when it reached the draining stage, the pump was unable to remove the water from the tub.

Because the machine could not drain the water, it stopped in the middle of the cycle and could not continue to the spin stage. This left the clothes sitting in water and prevented the wash program from completing.

Repair Completed

The faulty water pump was replaced. After replacement, the washing machine was tested through the drain and spin stages to confirm that water was draining correctly and the cycle could continue as normal.

After testing, the Westinghouse washing machine was draining properly and completing the cycle. The customer was advised to check pockets before washing, as small items can enter the drain system and damage or block the pump.

Common Causes of Washing Machine Not Completing Cycle

• Faulty water pump or drain pump
• Blocked drain pump filter
• Blocked or kinked drain hose
• Foreign object inside the pump
• Lid switch or door lock fault
• Control board not advancing the cycle
• Drainage timeout fault
• Water remaining in the tub before spin
