Kenmore washing machine restarts after finishing cycle
A few months ago I overloaded the washer with blankets and from googling it I assume water shorted the control board or something. As the topic states, the machine still works but after a cycle finishes, if the cover isn't opened right away (and it still has the "complete" light lit up), the sensing and fill process starts again after a few minutes. It runs through the entire cycle again and where the problem occurs again and again and again until the lid is open or the cycle is canceled/drained.
A control board is expensive for a washer that still mostly works. Is there some other cheaper repair that might help? It's a Kenmore model: 110.25102310
Thanks

It would appear to be a defective control board.
The start button is part of that control....correct ?
Pretty strange problem.
Have you tried unplugging the machine for a few minutes to reset the control.

Yeah, it looks like it but I haven't actually taken it apart. I've thought about it though, lol I'm always surprised how long moisture can last in tight, enclosed electronics (i.e. phones). It's a strange problem indeed lol and I don't really want to spend $200 on a machine that works as long as I am paying attention to it lol. I have not tried unplugging but that might just work! Will report back..
