Water leaks are not always easy to find so start at the water hose connections and go from there. If you know how to take the washer apart then do so and start looking. If you can,t find it call your local repair company to fix it.
What is your model number..also to let ya know Sears does charge for manuals. HOWEVER Sears doesnt make that washer that have it labeled for them..so with the model number i can determine exactly who made it..very likely Whirlpool and send ya a manual for that exact equivelent machine which will be identical except on the front where yours says Kenmore that one will say WHIRLPOOL
Whirlpool does not charge for manuals or even if is made by General Electric their maunals are free as well..only Sears charge to send ya hard copy in the mail and wont allow a pdf electronic versoin of it to be downloaded free
By removing back plate of washer you should see the wiring to the timer and also the timer it self. By removing the button on the front of the timer you will see two screws which remove the timer.
To find the cubic volume, get a tape measure or yardstick. Measure from the back of the tub to thee front lip, note the inches. Then measure the diameter of the tub, top to bottom of door should be close.
Multiply the 2 measurements. Divide the product by 144. the result will give you cubic feet.
EXAMPLE: back to front of tub 30 inches X 20 inches diameter of tub = 4.16 cubic feet of space..
It appears your timer/main controller/CCU has failed in this instance.
For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing. I recommend both sites because ...
FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.
PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information. RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.
If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell. In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.
Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.
If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.
