:(

Hello,
I have a kenmore washing machine model #23822100 that is stuck with clothes inside some stale water. When the selector switch is moved to the rinse cycle agitation starts. When it should move to the spin cycle and start draining the water out I hear a series of clicks and then nothing. Does anyone out there know what is wrong with my washing machine?

Could be the lid switch went bad. This is a safety mechanism that keeps the tub from spinning with the lid up. I had that part go bad on my one year old washer 7 years ago. Once it was changed out the washer has worked fine ever since.

Where is the lid switch located and how do I get the front panel off
