plug machine in turn timer knob to 6 o'clock position press and hold spin speed button turn timer knob 1 click clockwise release spin speed button now turn programmer knob to off wait 5 secs and turn on I had the exact same issueI hopefully it will work but you may have to repeat a few times and some engineers say it only works with motor unplugged but I have not found that.

Could be worn carbon brushes, or possibly defective shock absorbers

Hi

This issue usually occurs due to kinked drain pipe, clogged drain filter or drain pump. First make sure that the drain is not clogged and remove clogs if present. If no visible lint is present then remove the lower front access panel to check the drain filter and drain pump for any clogs, you'll need to clean the drain filter and drain pump completely. Hope this helps... Please post back for any further assistance.

from the manual always WAIT. DOOR Use the handle to open the door. During the wash and dry cycle, a special safety device keeps the door locked. To open the door, turn off the machine using the ON-OFF push-button and wait about 30 seconds after the switching off the warning light before turning the handle to open the door. also... WARNING: Set the cycle only when the machine is off. - Always turn the control dial clockwise. If you pass the desired position, make a complete turn and reset the dial to the exact position.

It won't drain If your washer won't drain, check these:

It spins, but doesn't pump 
It doesn't spin or pump
It pumps, but the water returns
It spins, but doesn't pump If your washer spins but doesn't pump the water out, the drain line is probably clogged. In many washers, a small sock or other piece of clothing can get between the clothes tub and the outer tub that holds the water. If the clothing gets between the tubs, it may then get into the drain hose that's attached to the pump--or even into the pump itself. If it's in the pump, you need to remove the hoses from the pump and pull the item out.

To remove the sock from the outer tub port, open the washer's main access panel and remove the large-diameter rubber hose that connects the pump to the bottom of the outer tub. Then, using needle-nose pliers, try to grab and remove the clothing through the port. 

Sometimes you can't remove the stuck clothing from below. Then you have to remove the agitator, top of the outer drum shield, and inner clothes tub. This isn't easy to do--and you may need special tools--so you might be happier getting a qualified appliance repair technician to do the job.

If the drain line isn't plugged, the problem may be with your pump. Even if the pump appears to be turning, the internal impeller may be broken. If so, you need to replace the pump.

It doesn't spin or pump If your washer doesn't spin or pump water out but the motor is running, your washer probably has a frozen pump pulley. If so, you need to replace the pump. To check the pulley, remove the pump from the washer and try to rotate the pulley manually. If it doesn't turn freely--if it's frozen or stiff--replace it. 

It pumps, but the water returns If the water that pumps out of the machine goes back into the machine after the spin cycle, your washer may be siphoning the water from a laundry tub that has a slow drain, back into the washer. The usual remedy for this is to improve the draining of the laundry tub. (Is something stuck in the drain?) Also, check for these problems:

• If the drain hose reaches more than about 4 inches into the laundry tub, cut off the excess.



• If your drain hose is lower than the washer's cabinet, install an air gap/siphon break assembly.

yes mostly you can go on line and look up part

You might start here: Tecnik Washing Machine Parts Be forewarned, your washer has a LOT of discontinued parts. Good luck!

If your dryer is electric: need to check for two things: bad over-temp thermostat (open)...or...open heating elements. If gas, check pilot and/or auto firing circuit.
