The red light indicating that the door is closed does not turn on, that is why the program does not continue and it stays in wash mode waiting. The red light sometimes turns on, sometimes it doesn't. Restarting it used to solve the problem, but now it doesn't even work that way. If you have an idea... thank you.

I have washer model WTW4855HW3. The machine stopped at the wash cycle and would not rinse or spin. I took the clothes out and the water drained. Now it is stuck with the wash light blinking. Can it be rebooted? I have the extended warranty but no one answers after a half hour of wait time.

To complete a cycle with the Whirlpool WTW4855HW washer, please follow these steps: 1. Load your laundry into the washer and close the lid. 2. Set the Water Level knob to your desired water level or leave it on Auto Sensing for the washer to determine the appropriate level based on the load size. 3. Use the control panel to select your desired cycle and options. 4. Press the START/PAUSE/CANCEL button to start the cycle. 5. The Progress Lights on the control panel will indicate the progress of the cycle. Different stages of the process may have unique sounds or pauses compared to traditional washers. 6. During the cycle, the washer will go through the following phases: - Sensing/Fill: The washer will fill and begin sensing to determine the load size and balance. There might be a brief pause during this phase. Once sensing is complete, the washer will fill to the appropriate level. On select cycles, agitation may occur during filling. - Wash: The washer will fill to the correct water level and perform the wash action. The HE agitator may increase speed at various stages of the wash cycle. - Rinse: Certain cycles utilize a spray rinse, which adds water to the tub while the basket spins. You may hear the motor briefly turn on to move the basket while filling. - Final Spin: The washer will spin the load at increasing speeds to remove water based on the selected cycle and spin speed. 7. Once the cycle is complete, the lid will unlock, and the Cycle Complete light will illuminate. Promptly remove your laundry for optimal results. 8. If the lid is locked, press the START/PAUSE/CANCEL button to unlock it. The lid will unlock once the washer movement has stopped.

Yes, the Whirlpool WTW4855HW washing machine's auto sensing feature only fills a small amount of water in a large load. Even when switched to maximum water, it still auto senses and remains low. It is not possible to adjust the sensing unit to provide more water.

Mine did the same since I bought it. I have to do it on the bulky wash cycle. Then I still have to open a little little and close it open and close it to add more water. I just dealt with it but it is a drag. Trying to see how to replace the agitator right now. I ran across something about the water level it's in the back of the machine some kind of adjustment. I've had this for 4 years so don't guess I'm going to worry about that right now. Sorry wish I could be more help,.... doesn't look like there's any answers on here.

On the Whirlpool WTW4855HW washing machine, if the water does not cover the clothes regardless of the wash option selected, there are several possible causes and solutions: 1. Make sure to load the garments as recommended. Spread them evenly around the basket wall and avoid tightly packing the load. Also, only load dry items. 2. Check the pockets for sharp items like pins or coins before washing. Empty the pockets, zip zippers, and fasten any hooks or snaps to prevent snags and tears. 3. Tie all strings and straps before starting the wash load to prevent tangling. 4. Mend any rips or broken threads in seams before washing the items. 5. Tight packing the load can cause fabric damage. Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall and only load dry items. You can also try using the Bulky/Sheets cycle for more water or set the Water Level knob to the Deep Water Wash setting. 6. If you use liquid chlorine bleach, make sure to add it correctly. Do not pour it directly onto the load and clean up any spills. Using concentrated bleach can damage fabrics, so follow the recommended amount. Also, avoid placing load items on top of the bleach dispenser when loading and unloading the washer. 7. Follow the garment care instructions provided by the manufacturer. Always read and follow the care label on the garments. Consult the "Cycle Guide" to select the best cycle for your load. 8. If you notice any odors, it may be due to not following the recommended monthly maintenance. 9. Using too much detergent can affect the washer's performance. Measure the detergent correctly and follow the manufacturer's directions. If none of these solutions solve the problem, please visit the Whirlpool website at www.whirlpool.com/owners (or www.whirlpool.ca/owners in Canada).

This machine doesn't fill on the Quick Wash cycle. The sensor light just blinks and blinks and never fills....10 minutes I waited.....but if I move the dial to Normal, it will fill and wash. I want use of the quick wash because this machine takes too long on Normal. Help!
