Will not spin or aggate - Washing Machines

What is the model number of your unit?

Does it fill and not agitate? If so, you will need to replace the lid switch.

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome. You need to check the motor drive. It controls the spinning and the agitation.

more than likely it's a bad door switch. The board uses a resistance reading from the door switch, and won't allow it to spin if the reading isn't good. I'd try replacing switch first. Part number is 131763202

Only you can answer that. The belt costs about $10 and a new machine costs from $400. If the transmission is out, thet can be purchased for about $100.

My Kenmore 70Series washer goes through the wash cycle then just stops when it is to drain and then spin.

We had the same problem and it was really easy to fix. On the dial for the load size, turn it all the way to the right to "reset" and then check to see if it resolves the problem. It did with our washer same model and problem. Best wishes.... Doug

Sounds like motor starter capacitor and/or motor fried.

check the water pressure switch and the hose connected to it for an obstruction
if the machine is aggatating it can not allow water to come into the machine cause it thinks it is at the water height that the pressure switch is set at or the tube was some gunk in it that is making the switch stay closed

remove the hose from the pressure switch it is clear and blow through it if it blows freely then the pressure switch is bad and replace it
if not blowing free blow hard to remove obstruction

see if the srew has loosend up from the transmission shaft
