Does your FAV6800AW error out with dc or UC errors in spin cycle and is it a FAV6899AW? You’re in Service Mode so have you looked thru the diagnostics code blocks and if so what errors are logged? Let’s see if we can start with the machine errors. You can try the Quick Spin test and see if the machine will spin up to 850 RPM with a unloaded wash basket.
I think you have the SM some links just in case. The Service Manual for reference. Sears Parts Direct for reference.

I have not heard from the first poster about clarification on their issue.
If your machine model a FAV6800AW or FAV9800AW I can help you DIY or give you enough info to help control service cost.
If the machine is the above type are you in service mode observing the LED display reading 48 RPM? Is the machine failing with “dc” and or “UC” unbalance error codes in spin cycle? If you are you may have a Clutch malfunction or Tub Displacement Sensor failure more likely a Clutch issue.
Next question, do you want to DIY the fix. If it’s a Clutch malfunction you may get away with One-Way clutch bearings clean up and re-lube worse case a clutch replacement around $60 with the clutch replacement I recommend.
If you call in a repair service I think you are looking at $300+. Let me know if you want to DIY.
See this post for what is involved with clutch replacement, it’s a tight work area but anyone with basic mechanical skill sets can do this. There are links for the Service Manual and parts look up in that post.
