Sorry, not clear, you say fills, stops then starts fill cycle again. What about emptying between? If not, could be water level switch. inside m/c, a pressure switch, usualy to top of m/c about 2.5 3 inches diameter, 2 wires, and a pipe. Pipe will go down side of drum to a connection at base of outer drum. Sometimes gets blocked with detergent at bottom end, So m/c does not know water level. Pull off of pressure switch and blow down pipe, If you can feel a pressure, blocked, so blow harder, should clear, if not get to bottom end of pipe, disconnect, clean out, refit. IF not this repost.
