If your Haier washer stops mid cycle, first check the incoming power. A loose power cord can interrupt electricity and make the washing machine stop mid cycle unexpectedly. If the cord is secure, a worn tub bearing is a likely cause, especially if the washer is noisy or the inner tub does not spin smoothly. Next, test the lid switch assembly, which prevents operation when the lid is open and can stop the washer during a cycle if it fails. A faulty control board can also interrupt power to washer components or misread the water level through its pressure sensor. On some models, the rear drum with bearing may be defective, causing excessive noise and stopping during operation. Finally, inspect the door lock motor and switch assembly. If the door lock does not latch or its switches fail an electrical continuity test, the washer may stop mid-cycle. Disconnect power before testing or replacing parts, and use your Haier washer's wiring diagram when checking electrical components. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific washing machine, including the correct tub bearing, lid switch, control board, rear drum, or door lock assembly.
01 - Incoming Power Problem
Make sure that the power cord is not loose. It must be plugged in tightly to ensure consistent electrical power to the washer.

02 - Haier Washing Machine Tub Bearing
The tub bearing is mounted in the middle of the outer tub. The tub bearing helps to keep the inner tub spinning smoothly. Replacing the tub bearing is a very involved repair and will require disassembling most of the washer. If the tub bearing is defective, we recommend replacing both the outer tub and bearing as an assembly if the manufacturer offers the components together.

The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer may stop mid-cycle. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test each of the lid switches for continuity. If a lid switch does not have continuity, replace it.
04 - Haier Washing Machine Door Lock Motor and Switch Assembly
The door lock secures the washer door shut during operation. Once the washer door is closed, the washer can begin operating. If the washer door is not latched shut, the door switch prevents the washer from operating. If the door lock is defective, the washer may stop mid cycle. The door lock can fail either mechanically or electrically. Inspect the door lock for damage. If the door lock is damaged or does not latch properly, replace it. To determine if the door lock has failed electrically, consult your washer’s diagram and use a multimeter to test each of the door lock switches for continuity. If one of the switches does ...not have continuity, replace the switch.
The rear drum has a bearing or bearings in it to keep the inner tub spinning smoothly. If the tub bearing system is defective the washer can become very noisy. On some machines bearings are sold separately from the rear drum, however we recommend replacing both the outer drum and bearing as an assembly if the manufacturer offers the components together because removing and pressing in the new bearing can be exceptionally difficult. Be aware that replacing the outer tub and bearing is also not easy and can be very costly.
Since a washing machine control board provides voltage to nearly all of the washer's electrical components, a board with a shorted component may send continuous voltage to the water inlet valve, causing the washer to overflow. You can inspect the board for signs of burning or a shorted-out component and use a multimeter to test the power output terminals on the board after reviewing the appliance's wiring diagram. Some washing machine control boards will have a built-in pressure sensor used to determine how much water to allow into the tub. The control board pressure sensor monitors the amount of water entering the tub dur...ing the fill cycle and will shut off voltage to the water inlet valve when the water has reached the proper level. A defective control board pressure sensor may allow too much water to fill the tub resulting in the washer overflowing. You can use a multimeter to test for appropriate changes in electrical continuity to help determine if the component is defective.
A clogged water inlet valve, the main water supply valve being partially closed, or low water pressure in the home can restrict the amount of water entering the tub, resulting in the washer stopping ahead of the spin cycle. Confirm water pressure is strong at the kitchen faucet and that the home's main water supply valve is fully open.
