I have a whirlpool washer LSR9434pq0 it fills normally and agitates/washes OK. Then when you think it is spinning it is really not. It is making a running noise but not spinning. If you lift the lid the clothes are very wet, like maybe it pumped out. When you close the lid it will spin out properly and then go into the rinse cycle. After the rinse cycle it does the same thing, the clothes are sitting in the machine very wet. If you lift the lid and close it , the machine starts again and will spin forever. I have to manually push the timer in to shut it off. Very seldom, one out of ten times will it shut off my itself. I'm thinking of replacing the timer. My wife had a serviceman come and he replaced the lid switch for $130.00. Why would opening and closing the lid cause it to work? Thanks.
