We really can use some advice on a Whirlpool Cabrio washer # WTW6600SG2.
Customer complaint: Set on ‘NORMAL’ the unit will fill and run in the wash cycle for about 15 minutes. pause, drops to 5 minutes on display, drains and spins, end of cycle. There are NO fault codes showing or saved. The control was replaced about a year ago. The unit ran fine after the board replacement. This unit is located in a beach house and gets only a few months of use a year. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

We had a situation that is identical to yours. We corrected it by disconnecting all the molex connectors at the control and reconnected them. I then went into diagnostics. I found a bad wire on the lower harness. Here are the diagnostic codes below for this model.

Warm water fills
through Fresh and
Detergent valves,
then Fresh valve
until basket floats
(disengages);
then washer
continues filling
through Fresh and
Detergent valves

level.
If no water or fill
temperature is wrong,
go to Manual: Water
Valves, page 2.
If basket does not float
or disengage,
determine cause of
friction.

through Bleach
valve for
10 seconds.
