Next turn wash cycle knob three clicks to the right. 6. Next turn wash cycle knob one click to the left. 7. Next turn wash cycle knob one click to the right. Stop. (Cycle status lights will come on.) 8. Next turn wash cycle knob to the right until only wash, rinse and done lights stay on. Stop 9. Next push start button and the cycle status lights will turn off. 10. Next unplug the washing machine from electrical outlet for ten seconds and then plug back into outlet. 11.

Thanks so much for this post! Saved me from having to call a technician. This is a fix that keeps on working. I did more research and found more detail in the strangest post from Whirlpool that is marked, "Please note these instructions cannot be sent to the consumer." Evidently these washers have something called "Continuous Test Mode" and it is possible to accidentally put your washer into Continuous Test Mode. In my case my daughter came and visited and used the laundry and somehow managed to manipulate the dial just right so make it go into Test Mode.
I had to try a few times to get the fix to work. When you're turning the knob 3 clicks to the right you need to stop for a moment at each click. So for those that want a little more detail until you get to the Step 8 as shown in the main Post, I have copied these steps from the official Whirlpool memo that I found helpful:
-To reset (clear) the washer, rotate the Cycle Selector Know counter-clockwise (left) to clear any sequence
-Rotate the cycle selector knob Clockwise (right) 1 click and wait 1/2 second
-Rotate the cycle selector knob Clockwise (right) 1 click and wait 1/2 second
-Rotate the cycle selector knob Clockwise (right) 1 click and wait 1/2 second
-Rotate the cycle selector knob Counter-Clockwise (left) 1 click and wait 1/2 second
-Rotate the cycle selector knob Clockwise (right) 1 click
All LED lights (except lid locked) should be flashing On and OFF in 1/2 second intervals.
--NOW FOLLOW STEP 8 as described in the main post....
My washer kept on going from Spin cycle back to the wash cycle for a total of two full wash cycles before going to “Done”. This fixed it! It would be helpful for there to be an explanation as to why this worked but still very grateful to the poster for sharing. I love the internet!!
THANK YOU!!! I've had my washing restarting for the past 3 years ... I was over it and ready to get a new machine...I followed your steps and it worked!!!
Omg...THANK YOU!!! Washer has been "broken" (endlessly repeating unless i open within 3 minutes of completion...it starts over and over and over). i tried several other fixes that were similar but none worked. THIS DID!!! Huge stressor taken away from my daily life. Thank you!!!
Wow! This solved my problem. It's been over 30 minutes since my last load of laundry finished. Normally this machine would just start all over again. It was driving me crazy! I thought I needed to replace the control board or something. I didn't want to buy another washing machine especially since I have been out of work during this pandemic. I really appreciate people like you who take the time to post these videos to help us all out.
It worked!!!! Thank you so much!!! This was our last effort before replacing the machine. We’ve been dealing with this for years!
It worked! Got a washing machine second hand for free, but I started over after each cycle. Found 24 dimes under my agitator and the reset fixed it right up.
We just did this procedure to our Kenmore 400 series machine and IT WORKED!!!!! I thought this guy was joking but after reading the comments I thought we'd try it...and it EFFIN WORKED!!! Thank you sir for posting this amazing video!!!!!
Thank you for the video!
My parents just purchased a new set 2 years ago and they have had to time it for 40 minutes , so they could catch it on the final rinse cycle before it started over again. They bought a new set and gave me theirs, they didn't even want me to trouble shoot it, they were so sick of it. I just got the set (identical to yours) home, and found your video, and did everything you said and it's been sitting there for 20 minutes after the last cycle and never started on its own again.
Thank You for the video!!!! You fixed my washer!!!!!! ♡
Thank you so much!!!! You are a genius. For those saying he doesn't know left from right, he is correct. Turn them RIGHT. He didn't do it in this video or he would reset his again.
Thank you SO MUCH for this video!!! We found a dime in ours, too! And best of all, it doesn't repeat the cycle on its own now that we followed your steps to reset it!!! I can't even imagine how much money you just saved us! THANK YOU!
Thanks for helping me fix my stupid washer 😉! ......it was a BIG help during the pandemic 🦠
Looks as though you have helped a lot of others! I bought a very lightly used washer today and this same problem was going on! I was furious to find it wasting electricity. However after a two hour search online throughout reviews I finally found your video! To say thank you seems so small, however I do sincerely thank you for posting this video! Such a great help as it worked for my washer!!
Thanks a Ton! The reset brought the washer back to action again.
Thank you soooo much for posting this!!!! Fixed my washer....it kept cycling over and over....back to working normal now....thanks again for posting this!!!!!!
I am so glad I found your video! I just bought a gently used washer that is doing the same thing. Can’t wait to try this! Thank you!!
Exactly what I needed, thank you
Wow. Totally worked. Don't forget to turn in a circle 3 times and have a rabbits foot in your left pocket.
I had the same problem, this really worked...exactly as instructed. I cant thank you enough!!😊 the local appliance repair quoted me between $250 to $400 + for repairs. Thank you so much for sharing!!! Many blessings to you!!!
Thank you so much! I’ve been trying to resolve this same issue with my Maytag Centennial washer for three years. This worked perfectly and has solve my issue. Going to make note of the fix if it happens again. Hopefully it never will. Thanks again!
Just want to thank you. My daughter has a washer almost the same model and it solved the issue perfectly
BE ADVISED! This works. Thank you for posting this. It saved me some time and money. Also, I have a slightly older model with the larger agitator. So it works for those as well. Thank you again!
You are a genius!!! Thank you, thank you. We tried everything and were skeptical when we saw your video. But it worked!!! Our washer is no longer restarting after it finishes the cycle. I'm so thankful! Lol. Have I said that?
Thank you so much for this video! I was able to fix my grandmothers washer with your help!

never thought about loose change covering the sensor.
It worked perfectly to my washer. Tanks a lot for sharing. It saved me a lot of money. Thanks
Ok ppl I know you think he may not know what he’s talking about but IT WORKED!!

Thank very much was getting ready to buy a new one thinking it was the mother board was told it was gonna be more to fix than what it was worth...thanks again fix it first try
Thank you for this video
You saved me a lot of money.
The timing of the 3 to the right, 1 to the left, 1 to the right was a bit tricky, but as a pro-tip: speak at the same cadence as the guy in the video, it actually worked to get the lights to come on.
This freaking works man. God bless you and your family
Thank you so much!! I was able to fix my problem with your video! 🙏🏼😁
Really helpful, thank you!
You Are A Lifesaver!!!!! We've had to time every load of laundry so we could catch it before it restarted!!! I just fallowed your steps exactly and waited 40 minutes after the load stopped and it didn't start over again! Thank you so much! You saved us a huge headache!
Thanks dude! I just did, I’m about to do a load now and see if it worked ! Thank you again
This fixed my problem! Thank you so much!! God bless!!
Thank you! It worked on mine, different model but still worked!
Have a Kenmore 400 Series with same symptoms. I did above ^ procedure twice with no lights coming on. I was reading steps and taking my time performing the steps on the machine. Then I asked my wife to read the steps to me and I did each step with a quicker pace. Yay! Lights came on as predicted and the procedure completed as described. First load completed and washer stopped as it should. Fingers crossed that future loads continue as they should. THANKS!
This is the ticket!!! Fix my issue thank you..thank you...thank you!1!!!!
Thanks!! Worked perfectly!!
Thanks so much bro this has been a big help saved me some money
You are amazing!!!!!!
There's no way in the world it should be this complicated to run a washing machine.
agreed
Acer Juglans i do not why Americans consumers and consumers from others countries, specially , 3rd world countries have allowed that the big companies changed their heavy duty clasic models washers for this crap, an example nowadays whirlpool one of the best brand in the market sucks, why?? Cause they changed the whole system of the washer, motor, transmission, control panel( now its a motherboard) these machines are giving a hard time no only to consumers to repairmen as well, using a domestic machine should not be so complicated, for heavens sake, complicated to use easy to break.

It's not, he is very confused in this video
This information is actually contained within an official Technical Service Bullitin. So it's legit! This technique worked on my washer that looks just like this one.
I have repaired many appliances, but have never came across this problem until today. Came across a Maytag with the same problem.
That being said, I am attempting to learn more about the electronic models. I am somewhat familiar with the tech sheets. Still trying to get them down pat.
At first, I thought he was going to recalibrate, but I was wrong. I have yet to come across anything about turning the other controls to the right.
I will also look to see what test/purpose Wash, Rinse, and Done lights are used for. I know different light combinations are used for different purposes.
I may buy the one I came across out of curiosity.
If this solves the problem on a consistent basis, it will be great to know in the future.
Btw, not too unusual to find coins under the washplate/agitator.
I saved this video. If I buy the machine that does the same thing, I will rely again.
Huge help thanks so much
Did the reset, now will try a load. Will update in an hr ..... :)
Thanks you! You are amazing
Thank you so much!!!!!
Did he go left when he said right?
Left and right doesnt make sense for torsion, he should have said counterclockwise
Lmao 😂
So counterclockwise wise not left lmao??? Im serious im lost
I can confirm he meant left 😅
Have a model wtw4900bw1,the sensitivity and lock coming on when I try to start a wash cycle. No water coming in the machine. I did the diagnosis from what the Manuel shown me in the book and the water fulls,but only when u do the diagnosis. Other than that nothing. Have u ever come across that problem?
It worked 4 me! Hooray!
I used to have that washer but then it started making a really weird noise one day and the drum locked up. Now I have a Kenmore top load but I have that dryer that matches the washer in this video. I miss that washing machine honestly.
Wow this worked thanks!
I think mine skips cycles and when it spins the tub shakes the whole washer. Then it just spins a little not all the way around. Any suggestions
I cant get wash and rinse to light up at the same time. The closest i get is wash spin and done. Can anyone help?
MAR2021- It worked on a similar whirlpool machine.
This worked perfectly for our WTW4800BQ. Do you know if these Whirlpool washers are supposed to drain completely?
Sure sounded like you said turn to the right and then you turned the four dials to the left or counterclockwise.
Just did it and looks promising... Its a bit older but still responded the exact same so ill see next load... I gotta put one 2gether immediately the suspense is too much
Perfecto!
thanks very much, this works fabulously, I owe you a coke
Thought for sure this was a joke. It’s not. It worked. Thanks a million.
Dude dont know his left from his right, but the (written in description) method worked like a charm!
9..... 9 dimes under the actuator.... and a whole lot of icky... Even if ur washer is running fine, id pop that baby off and take a look/clean it out....
im going to try this out...my washer keeps running cycles even while being unplugged! LOL JK
I have the exact same washer, it kept making a terrible noise then I come to find out it was having trouble draining, cause of a penny! Thought our washer was broken!!!!
My stats lights never come on. Time to call the repairman?
My lights are totally out
I honestly feel we need compensation !
For this ps !
You all nees to recall these garbage
I think he meant to say the other right
Dude this got me all confused now...
You don't know left and right
You forgot to rub your belly and pat your head..lol
Running the "calibration" cycle in the diagnostics mode is all that's needed.
Terrible directions
