My washer stops itself at the end of the light wash cycle and won't drain or spin or even advance. Could this be a problem of the motor or the controller? Any advice? Please help!

Unfortunately, I don't hear a click when I open or close the lid. What could this mean?
Hi I have a similar problem on my new HW-C1260TVE-U washer. I have tried several washes an spin cycles / speeds. The washing machine will not spin for mor than 5-10 seconds during the spin cycle and ends with the UnB error. There is no problem with the pump or water as the washer is draining before it attempts to spin. The macine is on level ground and stable. Does anyone have a solution for this error
The problem is most likely the lid switch assembly. The lid switch is a safety feature that will **t allow the washer to go into the spin cycle unless the lid is shut (so ** wandering children get caught inside).
If the switch is working, you should hear a click when the door closes and makes contact with it. If the lid switch is defective/broken, the washing machine usually won't drain or spin. If it's bad, you will need to replace it. It should be mounted inside of the cabinet, just under the door of the washer (on most models). Please let me k**w if this corrects your problem.
