washing machine absolutely losing its mind

ge top-load washing machine. unsure of exact model of washer or purchase year since its my aunts and not my own

  • did not start until someone started spinning the drum a bit manually before hitting the start button
  • would not respond to any button inputs until then, stopped responding to button inputs after
  • keeps chiming and activating/deactivating buttons seemingly at random (deep fill and my cycle in particular) which i have video footage of here -- please excuse the subpar quality
  • to my knowledge no settings have been changed in any way, intentionally or otherwise, that could cause this
  • as far as my testing can confirm its not an issue with load size, balance, or power
  • worked just fine up until sometime yesterday at earliest

what gives? is it just a big fancy block of garbage now? thanks in advance for any answers you may have o7

Hi @wahoowav

Try a power refresh to see if that resets the control board.

Disconnect the power from the washing machine for about 5 minutes then reconnect it and check what happens.

If still no good, then to minimize replacing parts etc in an endeavour to find the problem you may have to find out the model number of the washer, so that the mini manual which has the diagnostic tests and schematics can be found to help to find out what the problem actually is.
