Haier Washer won't start
When your Haier washer won't start, first confirm both the hot and cold water supply valves are fully open. A washer may not begin the cycle if it cannot fill. If the washer has power but won't start, check the user control and display board, also called the user interface board. If some control panel buttons work while others do not, or the display is blank even though the board has power, the board may be defective. The timer is another possibility, but it is often misdiagnosed, so test it for continuity with a multimeter using the wiring diagram before replacing it. Make sure the washer door or lid is completely closed because the machine will not run when open. If your washing machine won't turn on, test the line fuse for continuity and investigate any shorted wires, motor, or drain pump that may have caused it to blow. Enter your Haier washer's model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific washing machine.

Additionally, if the display is not working, check the power to the user control and display board. If the user control and display board has power, but it isn’t working, replace it.

06 - Haier Washing Machine Line Fuse
The line fuse blows if the washer circuits are overloaded. If the line fuse blows, the washer won’t start. To determine if the line fuse is at fault, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the fuse does not have continuity, replace it. In addition, you should investigate and resolve the problem that caused the fuse to blow. Check for shorted out components such as the wires, motor, or drain pump. If you don’t resolve the underlying issue, the new fuse will blow too.
Highly Likely
07 - Haier Washing Machine Thermal Fuse
If the washer overheats, the thermal fuse will blow. If the line fuse blows, the washer won’t start. To determine if the thermal fuse is at fault, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the fuse does not have continuity, replace it. In addition, you should investigate and resolve the problem that caused the fuse to blow. If you don’t resolve the underlying issue, the new fuse will blow too.
