Unplug the washer or disconnect the power for one minute and reconnect it again. Reselect the cycle and press Start. If the problem persists (or if you require further explanation), you'll have to obtain a walk-through from Whirlpool use the contact information here--https://www.contacthelp.com/whirlpool/customer-service.
