Have already bypassed the lid switch. still wont drain or spin on any setting
If it can't drain then it won't spin,something could be jammed in the pump,the clutch isn't falling on the trans. what does it do when it goes into spin cycle'do you hear any noises.when it does go into spin cycle listen if nothihng hapeens open the lid and close it listen to see if the clutch falls
SOURCE: washer will fill,drain,agitate but won't spin.
you have done well to bypass the lid switch now check to make sure the water level indecator is shutting off.

It sounds like your Drain pump has either become clogged, or has burned out.

there is a possibilty the drain pump maybe locked up by a small foreign object such as a small nail tooth pick drill bit or even a coin check that.if that does not solve them problem then the timer or control board may need to be replaced

http://www.youtube.com/user/RepairClinic... watch this video it will show you how to get to the pump,also when you jumped out the lid switch plug the jumper wire into the harness that plugs into the lid switch and it should be connected to the two outside wires any two except the green ground wire,pull out the timer set on spin and it should spin if the lid switch is bad.if it agitates and stops at the spin sounds like the lid switch is bad,if not check the pump.what does it do when it goes into drain spin,is it trying to spin or is it dead,if it does nothing i would say it's the lid switch or possible bad timer,if it makes noise then the lid switch is sending power and could be a pump.let me know what it does.
can you let me know please if you got this message,thanks for your time
i thought i did respond to it. we tried all the methods suggested. the whole machine was taken apart. nothing worked. so we ended up getting a new machine. thank you for all your suggestions.
thanks for getting back to me,i didn't get any other resonse,the reason why i asked is that i answered like 10 people and didn't hear from anybody,something might be wrong with the site.to bad you had to get rid of that washer,good machine they don't make them like that anymore and soon all you'll be able to get is front load washers ortop loaders without full agitator
