The most common mechanical causes for a Front Load Washing Machine not spinning are the Door-Lock, Water Pump, Motor or Motor Drive Unit.

MostCommonReasonsaFrontLoadWashingMachineWon'tSpin: Depending on the brand the solutions will vary. In our years of front load washing machine we suggest this 3-step diagnosis:

  1. Open the door and determine if the machine has water in it. If there is water inside the machine the pump may be clogged. Some brands have a trap that is easily accessible and can be cleaned out with relative ease.
  2. Inspected that circuit panel of your home and see if the breaker has tripped. Reset the breaker see if the washer starts to spin.
  3. Make sure HE soap is being used. If not remove the clothes, place liquid fabric softener and restart the machine using the cold water setting.

Throw cycle gets to drain and spin part stops and says end so I change the settings to just drain and spin and it drain but when it trys to spin it starts to turn then stops and says end

If your washing machine is not completing the spin cycle and displays an "End" message, there could be a few reasons for this:
  1. Unbalanced load: An unbalanced load can cause the machine to stop spinning to prevent damage to the appliance. Try redistributing the clothes in the machine and restart the spin cycle.
  2. Clogged drain: A clogged drain can cause the machine to stop spinning. Check the drain filter and make sure it is not blocked.
  3. Faulty motor or motor control board: A faulty motor or motor control board can cause the machine to stop spinning. If you hear a humming sound or the drum doesn't turn at all, this could be the issue. In this case, you may need to call a professional to inspect and repair the machine.
  4. Faulty lid switch: A faulty lid switch can prevent the machine from spinning. If the machine doesn't spin but you can still hear the motor running, this could be the issue. You can check the lid switch by opening and closing the lid to see if the machine responds.
If you've checked the load and the drain and neither of those seem to be the issue, you may need to call a professional to diagnose and repair the problem.

The washer no longer seems to spin... during the spin portion of the cycle it lights up saying it is spinning, but you can see inside that it is not physically spinning. The clothes are left dripping wet...

My machine won't spin, they say try the belt but Where's the belt?

THERE IS NO BELT ... IT IS USUALLY THE LOADING DOOR SAFETY SWITCH THAT SHUTS OFF WASHER WHEN DOOR IS OPENED DURING SPIN CYCLE. THAT SWITCH CAN GO BAD. THIS IS NOT AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR ...
