SPIN CYCLE At start of spin cycle the pump runs and drains. When the spin cycle starts, the drum rocks heavily even when empty, and the motor stops momentarily. About 15 secs. later it starts again with same result. This continues until the timer stops.

    Yes, I have this problem also, further the clothes are wet coming out of the machine. Like DRIPPING wet, not just normal wet.



    I have reset the computer by unplugging waiting for twenty seconds then plugging back in, however that is not working anymore.



    I think it is ashamed to buy a 800 washer that is only lasting 5 years!



    When my Dryer quit on my last year, I had a technician come over, tear it apart and charge me 75.00 to say it could not be fixed. Is this an issue that has been found in these machines and is it terminal or fixable at a reasonable cost?

    I have the same problem, drum shakes and quits during the whole spin cycle leaving the clothes wet.

    Same problem with Maytag Neptune MAH3000AWW. Took it apart and found inner tub rear bracket (where shaft connects) was broken in all 3 sections of support bracket.

    Also found shaft bearings need replacement, but Maytag won't sell bearings seperate from outer tub (pressed in), would cost $700 to fix both problems. Is there a current lawsuit or other option to reimburse for this?

    the cycle starts up but doesn't run all the way through then the drum keeps spinning but the water doesn't end up draining out when done. The water just stays in the drum.

Machine lacked about 23 minutes in cycle, it stopped with lights flashing. It will not drain, therefore cannot spin. It just beeps whenbi try to start it again.
Good Day,
Your washing machine is fully automatic?
the washing cycle is normal?
if yes do the same maybe it will help you.
for the fully automatic washing machine mostly have drain pump, please check the filter of your drain pump, how? remove the cup of your drain pump like a ordinary cup, screw it clock wise or counter clock wise.
Remove drain pump filter and clean it, some hair pins, cotton buds or coins or any small item that coz of clog up.
if your washing machine dont have drain pump ,but fully automatic check the drain motor if running or not? how? open the back cover for top loader washing machine only, select spin cycle and press start to see the drain motor running? the drain motor is like a small box with small wire to pull the lever of the drain to remove water inside, if the motor running or pull the lever of the water pipe but water still inside the washing machine, remove the drain cup or cover and clean it or check if have coin or cloth inside that coz of clog or water stuck,
if the drain pump or drain motor is weak this is will cause and long time draining or totally not running the drain pump or drain motor and its cause of totally stop the cycle of washing machine in rinse time or spin time, because all fully automatic washing machine, after washing cycle the drain pump or drain motor must be on, to remove water before start the next cycle. rinse or spin cycle.

Whirlpool Front Loading Washer Only Spins in Diagnostic Mode
replace the brushes in the motor _around 20 quid and usually the first thing to start messing up when the brushes get short is the fast spin _UNPLUG IT FIRST. you might also like to clean up the com with a bit of wet and dry

My washer won't spin on spin cycle
Hi rapwizz,

I believe your drain pump filter is just clogged. The drain pump is trying to pump the water out before the Spin cycle, but can't. Usually this is caused by a foreign object that is obstructing the impeller. See my tip on how to access, drain & clean the Drain Pump Filter:

ACCESS, DRAIN & CLEAN THE DRAIN PUMP FILTER

After this, the Spin cycle will run, after the drainage procedure. If it does not, then you may need to replace the Drain Motor. Which is a easy task.

Kind Regards :-)

Washer has stopped at 26 min with water in the drum. Will not spin or drain. Just sounds like it starts running then stops and repeats.
Good deal your machine is a Series 11.

“”Washer has stopped at 26 min with water in the drum. Will not spin or drain. Just sounds like it starts running then stops and repeats.””

I believe this is the start of a Spin Cycle of that Wash Cycle which Wash Cycle did you have selected?

Are there any error codes to the LED display like dC or uC?

If you stop that wash cycle with the wet load and do a Spin Only cycle will it complete with no error code?

Does the wash tub bang around in Spin Only cycle with the wet clothes load?

Standing by for some feedback and I will try to help.

Here is the Service Manual and parts look up. Can you let me know if you want to try to DIY the fix?

I have a lgwm 2677hbm washer and got a code read out de .i looked it up and it said drain error,i cleaned the drain filter but it sounds very loud during the rinceand spin cycle and i dont know if this...
It is not likely an object got past the filter before the pump, so I'd guess that the impeller has come loose from the pump motor shaft. Replace the pump motor. (washer will not spin if water is still in drum)

Motor running drum not emptying
sounds like maybe a blocked pump.Probably got a coin or sock or some lint in the pump.Has your machine got a filter ? What happens when you position the program switch on a spin section and turn it on ? does it pump out the water ?

Bosch classixx 1000 washing machine - stops on spin
Washing machine stops at the spin cycle - light flashes. Have to drain water out manually. Happened last week and was then able to run an empty rinse cycle. Machine worked normally for another week. Same problem today but have had to drain water manually from the drum after trying an empty 90 wash and rinse cycle (both stopped on the Spin and flashed). Any ideas? Thanks. x

Drain pump starts and stops prior to final spin cycle
Jayron, is the motor jogging? start to spin, stop, start to spin stop. If so, your motor is jogging between the high and low start windings. The motor during spin should start on the high speed windings and stay there until most of the water is drained. GE came out with a new motor, harness and run cap because of this. If you have a meter, there should be a white and white/red wire going to the motor. If you have a steady 120V and it's doing this jogging, replace the motor with the kit...Let me know if this the issue, Catriver..post back.
