Inglis Washer won't stop

When your Inglis washer won't stop, keeps running, or is stuck on a cycle, first check for water siphoning from the tub. The drain hose outlet should end about 30 to 36 inches above the floor in a standpipe or laundry tub. A drain hose installed too low, sealed tightly at the standpipe, or pushed too far down the pipe can cause the washer to drain and refill continuously, making it seem like the washing machine won't stop. If the washer drains normally, the control board is the next likely cause. Inspect the control board for burn marks or a shorted component, although it cannot be easily tested. A defective main control board can cause similar washer not stopping symptoms. Less commonly, a faulty timer may keep the washer running or leave it stuck on a wash cycle. Test the timer with a multimeter and the wiring diagram before replacing it. Always disconnect power before inspecting or testing parts. Enter your Inglis washer model number to find the exact replacement control board, main control board, or timer for your specific washing machine.

01 - Water siphoning from tub

If the water is siphoning from the tub the outlet end of the drain hose is likely lower than the water level in the tub. The drain hose should terminate between 30 inches to 36 inches (77 centimeters to 92 centimeters) above the floor, depending on the model, in a standpipe or laundry tub. If the drain hose is sealed at the top of the standpipe or excess hose is pushed too far down into the pipe, siphoning can also occur.

02 - Inglis Washing Machine Timer

If the washer can successfully drain the water from the tub then a defective timer could be responsible for the washer not stopping. You can test the timer by using a multimeter and consulting the wiring diagram. If the timer is defective, replace it.
