Hi there
first turn the machine off then tilt the machine back and lean it on something(a chair or wall), look underneath, in the top right hand corner of the plastic outer boul you will see a small pump motor it has a fan on it spin this fan and if it is hard to turn that means there is somthing stuck in the drain pump keep turning the fan and try to free whatever is stuck in the pump, then try the machine on spin again all goin well the object in the pump should come out with the drain water( doing this will not harm the machine) if the object is still stuck you will need to get the water out of the machine (bailing or siphioning will work) and tilt the machine back again and take the wires off the pump and there should be a white tab in the boul holding the pump on pull this tab and twist the pump anticlockwise about a quarter turn(you will need a few towels or a boul or bucket to catch the water) and it should come off exposing the blockage.
Hope this solves your Problem.

Had the same problem after a severely unbalanced load caused the washer to basically stop in the spin cycle. After rebalancing the load and finishing the wash, we found a strange little red plastic clip in the clothes and wondered where it came from. Then by chance we spotted the end of a spring attached to the top of the inside of the drum where it had not been visible before. We took the plastic lid off, popped off the two covers for the screws holding the top of the washer, removed the two screws, and lifted the top up at the front. There we found the one spring on the left front side had come undone. The red plastic clip fit into the top of the drum in a little slot that was obvious, and the spring attached to the clip. That was all there was to it. Repair and reassembly done in under five minutes. There is only one spring on the newer washers. Ours is only a few months old and I am not sure about the model number, but all the new ones look to be made the same.
