I'm a little puzzled. After I removed the FOUR screws, not two, to get the top off, I looked for the plastic connector with two wires. I stopped counting at 25 wires. I have no idea which of those 25+ wires are the two wires.

Door switch. In my case the switch broke away from the screws.

Real good chance it's your lid switch. Hope so, cause the repair is easy and inexpensive.

To test, you want to by-pass the lid switch. Unplug the machine (I always forget to say that) Take the two screws out where the console is screwed to the top and flip the top back. You will see a plastic connector connecting wires from the console to a a plastic connector going into the top. Disconnect this connector and insert an insulted, solid wire into the two out terminal holes on the connector coming from the console.

Plug the machine back in, turn the selector to spin and see if it spins. If it does, replace the lid switch.

Here is your part.

Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

This worked GREAT....I used a small, strong, wide rubber band that held the lid switch together tightly. And the machine worked perfectly afterwards. I did not order a new part but will when needed or maybe use something else down the road. Good luck everyone and thank you so much for this help!

My Whirlpool Ultimate Care II will not work on spin cycle when I have clothes in. It goes through wash/rinse cycle and stops at spin cycle making humming noise until the end of the process, but timer continues to moving. If I open and close the door within couple of seconds, when humming noise just started, then it will work. When I am running &#8220;empty&#8221; works fine, if I just start spin cycle it works fine too. Checked the lid switch, nothing wrong[/font]

You saved me! I just purchased a used machine today. The guy that sold it to me hooked up everything and I paid him more than my husband said I could spend, but I need to wash despartly! The guy left before I could run it through a cycle, and when I did it wouldn't rinse. You can probably imagine the panic mode I went into bc now I have paid $100 bucks more than what its worth and it won't work!!!

After reading this post, I went to check the pressure of the water and found out that he didn't turn on the cold water.

WHAT A RELIEF!!!!!

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH for fixing my (new) used washer, making my day and saving me from most certain ridicule! This was a simple fix! :)

This worked GREAT! (No) or Low water pressure was the problem with my washer. The guy who installed it forgot to check. I turned the cold water pressure on and the rinse cycle worked!!!! Thanks for the advise!:) :) :)

I know this thread is old; I'm a bit desperate.....my washer will wash but when it's time for it to go into the drain then spin cycle, it just stops. No noise, buzzing, nothing. It washes then silent. I just want to be clear, still probably that switch? Thanks so much....
