If your machine is not draining, or not moving on to the agitating cycle, or spin cycle, you could have a broken lid switch. As a safety feature, when the lid switch is broken the machine won’t advance past the FILL stage. If you open and close the lid and don’t hear a ‘click’ it’s most likely broken. You will need a new lid switch and as you see in my video, I also needed a connector because it was burnt up and fused to the switch. If you have any questions just ask in the comments section.
The machine is this video is a MTW5870TW0
The Lid Switch is Whirlpool part number 8318084
