    The spinning can not start until the drum is empty.
    So the problem is in the pump section!

    First : CLOSE the water inlet tap.

    Remember that your drum is full of water : remove the pump hose from pipe and put into drain or bucket. You do not want all that water to drain over your floor. Make sure the drum drains properly (if too slow check later also the hose for blockage).

    Than check the water pump : open up the pump cover (at bottom front). Be ready to collect remaining drain water!! Remove any obstructions. Check also the access hole to the inner drum.

    Close the pump cover.
    If you want to check the hose do it now, by blowing through the outlet section towards the washer. When clean , re-install the pump hose.
    Open the water tap. Check the washer and pump operation.
    If you still have a problem - and have a multi meter - you can do more tests if you want.

    Just let me know by private mail (click on my handle and follow instructions) and I will return here to reply.

    Success !

    :)

Whirlpool Ultimate Care AL5143VW0 stalls [ 2 Answers ]

My Whirlpool will fill and agitate then stall before it drains and spins. It is so frustrating to go switch clothes to the dryer and the washer is still full of water.
