    Washing machine category -- Whirlpool manual
    Looking for (Model: WTW8200YWO) Whirlpool service manual, not operating manual. Have already called Whirlpool. Their answer: Not available to general public, only authorized technicians. I have manuals for all/most appliances that have been purchased from Sears and other companies. Now a DIY person has to be or get employed by a repair company? Repair companies can get service manuals? Then why not me?
    How does a DIY person obtain a Service Manual?

    Different companies provide different rules for their products. Whirlpool probably doesn't want DIYs working on their products, so they don't lose money. If Whirlpool says it's unnavailable to the general public, they are most likely going to have a strict process to stop it from getting out. I would say getting one would be near impossible, and whoever does would be risking getting into big trouble.

    Here are some. I don't have time to see if they match: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8010163/Whirlpool%20Washers.zip

    If you can describe it whether front loader or top loader and the name of it I can get one closer, but the ones above should cover anything you need because they are so similar.

    Buy it new? Call warranty service. If used, that is the typical problem, always need to test.

    This will help: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...c%20washer.pdf
    I think your problem is very simple like something in the water level switch.
