Sounds like it's time for a new machine

If you go to a new machine (I'd fix the switch), don't get a new low
water one if you have animals. It will plug.

I'd buy ESTATE which is Whirlpool House brand for half. It'll go 7 yrs
for $300.

PS I tried the new Whirlpool $2,000 low water yadda yadda and it was
broken down within 90 days.
