I have a Whirlpool Cabrio washer about a year old. When I run a wash cycle it gets stuck in constant loop of wash cycles going on and on. The washer would begin to soak the clothes right after the spin cycle and then go through the entire wash cycle once again. To stop this I had to turn the washer off. Is there a reset I could follow to stop the endless wash cycle or do I need to replace parts?

It didn’t spin the clothes out. I have tried to reset it with your directions and it still does not work.
My touch button cabrio washer will start and sound like the lid locks then the add garment light will come back on from there nothing for about 3-5 minutes then it will just power down and say end
I am getting a code sd. Machine goes thru the cycle until 14 minutes left, then it’s struck. I tried the reset test. After I turn the dial in sequence then press srart, the lights do not come on. I had this problem last year and had to re place a part under the basket.
My whirlpool cabrio gets stuck in endless wash cycle? And error code is SD? How can I fix this I’ve tried both ways to reset and can’t get either one to work?
