I had the same issue. It was the fill valve. I know this does not make sense since it fill the first time. Seems like a controller issue. Well to test: Run it the first time and watch it fill and wash… the cancel this and try it again if it fails this it is because the valve got hot and can not fill the second time until it cools. The reason? The manufacture bought cheap water relays … plane ( pain) and simple — make you want to buy another…

The water switch-solenoid is malfunctioning . To test this have if fill and run it till is drains then cancel and start over and if it does not fill on first start up then your solenoid has become temperature sensitive - defective. Just replace it — is has nothing to do with your control board. I wasted a lot of money thinking that if if fills first time then its a control issue.

20OCT18. I also had this same issue. I first replaced the mother board, thinking it fills first time all the time… then fixed itto replace the water valve. What is happening ? The valve is getting hot and it takes too much current to make it energize and stops filling. The computer board was okay. To verify this: Turn on your washer with the sanitize setting. let it run for about 5 minutes then cancel it and rerun it again. Mine failed, retried several times… wait an hour and it fills. then ig will not work. — this was repeatable. I wasted money on a computer board where it was the valve due to a poor design that is effecting lots of people …

I have the same issue, Kenmore ultra quiet. It fill perfectly the first time and runs then dumps the water. Then it does not refill. I just replaced the control board and the float micro switch. checked wiring with no faults seen. This does not make sense as the controller board is an updated model. I still have the first fill, no others… 11OCT18

I found the proper clip. It is sold by centralsound for $9.99 on e-bay. I did not know that there are four holes that are filled in from the old broken clip. had to use a small pick to get the ols plastic out for the new clip to work, It is a perfect fit. I also found a person printing the part; it looks rough,

Nope they want you to purchase another device, you do get a 25% discount for spending more money for a broken device that works fine it could hold the charger in place.... a $1.00 part.
