Most likely causes
When we get service calls in Brooklyn and Manhattan for this issue, one of these is almost always the culprit:
- Drain issue — machine pauses to try again
- Failed thermistor causing the water heater to stall
- Door-lock sensor losing signal
- Overloaded circuit tripping mid-spin
- Firmware fault requiring a hard reset
What to check before calling a professional
Work through these in order. If none resolves the problem, it's time to schedule service.
- Note the exact step it stops on — fill, wash, drain, or spin
- Unplug for 5 minutes to clear the board
- Clean the pump filter
- Check for error codes displayed after the pause
