New washer model 796-4027. In my last front load Kenmore, you could see water in the bottom of the tub - at least a few inches of water. In my new machine - you can't see any water at all in hte bottom as the clothes rotate around. But they are all wet. They just aren't soaked like I'm used to seeing. Should I be able to see water in the bottom of the tub or not? The machine does make a little whining noise as it puts water in - and it seems to put it in in spurts. I have around 70 psi in my pipes - so I have very good flow. Also, there are no error codes showing.
Different machine
the water spurts are operating as the drum rotates so that the clothes are evenly wet before the wash process begins
could be designed to use less water than previous models
make sure that the drain hose is at the correct level or all of the water will drain out
talk with a service agent and read the user manual for the operations and what can be expected

Sounds like a slow drain. Recheck the drain hose if it looks ok get a bucket to put the hose in to see how fast it comes out. If it comes out slow the drain pump impellor may be broken.

Does it agitate and does the door lock light come on? Theres a panel on the back you can take off via 4 screws. Here you can check the belt and watch to see if it spins or moves at all. If the door lock light comes on, and you here the door click. Than chances are your motor control board is bad. Seen this many times. Im actually replacing one tomorrow on the exact washer.I believe the part # is 22004045. Heres a diagram. If the door doesnt lock than you need either a lock assy or a new computer for it. The computer is in the top panel where the timer is. If you look at it you should see a burnt resistor. If no burnt resistor than its more likely th lock assy. Ill try and find the part # for the lock and computer, and a digram. Hope this helps. Dave www.washermd.com
SOURCE: Washer wont fill with water/clothes dont get clean
Actually the machine is working like it is designed. When the correct soap is used, these machines clean clothes better than the old style. Try using a major brand of soap like Tide, Bold, or Cheer. Make sure it has the HE design on the bottle. This means that it is made just for the new High Efficiency machines. Also make sure you don't use to much. Read the directions. If this is done correctly, I'm sure you will find that it does clean great. I was like you when I first saw one of these new machines. "These is no way you can clean dirty and I mean dirty clothes without enough water to cover them. Well since, I have became a believer. They have put a lot of thought into designing these things. They had to of, for them to clean as good as they do.

This assumes that you have a basic Kenmore / Whirlpool top load, direct drive, neutral drain (it doesn't spin until the pump removes most of the water) machine.
First, see the Sears parts site for your washer:
http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/index.action
Enter your model number (###.########) and you'll see a list of major sub-components with diagrams and parts.
Initial thoughts point to one of two places.
1. It's possible that your pump and/or hoses are clogged.
2. It is also possible that the "Motor coupler" between the motor and transmission is worn and cannot provide full power to the tub when agitating.
See the following illustrated descriptions of how to access the pump and motor coupler.
If either is bad or worn, they aren't all that expensive.
I doubt that the problem is the motor since the machine will agitate and spin.
