How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before inspecting electrical connections.

  • Check power cord and outlet: Ensure the Insignia washer plug fits snugly in the outlet and the cord is not loose.
  • Inspect door/lid switch: A failing switch can momentarily open and pause the cycle. Replace if it feels loose or inconsistent.
  • Examine control board: Remove the control panel and look for signs of overheating or loose connectors. Reseat all harnesses.
  • Monitor operation: If the issue persists, the main control board may be failing and should be replaced.
