Why does my washer stop at the drain cycle
My washer stops at the drain cycle and will not continue. Sometimes I can unplug it for a while and it will reset
Is this a good question?

Cause 1
Drain Pump
Sometimes, small objects or articles of clothing can get caught in the drain pump. To determine if anything is blocking the drain pump, remove the drain pump and check the pump for obstructions. If the drain pump is clear of obstructions, but is still noisy during the drain cycle, replace the drain pump.
Cause 2
Clogged Pump or Hose
Sometimes, socks and other small articles of clothing can get into the drain system and clog the pump hose or the pump itself. Remove the hoses from the pump and check for any obstructions.
Cause 3
Lid Switch Assembly
The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not drain. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test each of the lid switches for continuity. If a lid switch does not have continuity, replace it.

What might happen is that there might be a clog (socks,shirt, cotton,etc…). If the washer won't drain there might be a clogged and clog is leading to the pump or the pump itself. Remove the hoses from the pump in order to remove the article of clothing. Hopefully this helps!
