It over fills. Runs on the floor. Stops filling when turned off. Will not agitate. Will pump out and spin.
Sounds like the fill switch Maybe. Doing long distance troubleshooting.

You are having problems with the water level control. You will need a good digital multimeter to test it. First, drain the water and remove the back to the control panel and on the water level control you will see a (clear) plastic hose attached. Follow it to the bottom of the tub and check to see if it is attached. It may have come loose and if so that is your problem. If not, then remove it and blow on it while listening for the switch to click. If the switch does not click then replace it, if it does then check it with a meter. You have a common wire coming into it and with no pressure it sends power to the water valves by closing the switch to them. On the meter set to "ohms" it will read about zero (unplug one wire, like the common wire and never have power on when doing any test on "ohms."). When you blow on it, the switch will open the contacts to the water valves and close the one to the timer. I bet the problem is that the hose has either come loose or has a hole in it. You can get the clear plastic tubing at almost any hardware store for about $2.00, or you may only need to cut off the ends and re-attach it.
