How can I fix my Whirlpool washing machine?

Why does my Whirlpool washing machine quit working mid-cycle unless something heavy is placed on top of it?

Yes, it hangs up in the same spot every time - shortly after the wash cycle starts.
Thanks!

Hello,

Where does it get hung up? Same place all the time? If it gets hung up during the drain/spin cycle it could be the lid switch acting up and then being ok when you put something on the lid to weigh it down. Check out the contacts of the switch.
