As well as our technician’s advice, there are some common reasons why your washer stops mid-cycle.

Lid Switch Malfunction

On washing machines that you load from the top, there is a switch that signals to the machine that the door is locked and the cycle can start. If the lid switch malfunctions, the machine will think the door has been opened mid-cycle and so stops.

Inspect your lid switch and see if it is level and press down on it to see if the spring is working as it should. When pressure is applied, if the lid switch does not spring back, it needs to be replaced.

Faulty Water Inlet Valve

The water inlet valve is the part of the washer that controls the flow of water into the drum. If broken, either no water will enter the drum in the cycle or too much water will flow in. In either case, the machine will detect that there is too much or too little water and switch off. This could be the reason your washer stops mid-cycle.

If this is the problem, a new water inlet valve needs to be fitted so that the appliance can regulate the water flow correctly. Your washer should then run a whole cycle without turning off.
