DOES NOT SPIN HIGH SPEED - Whirlpool Ultimate Care II LSQ9564J Top Load Washer

Have you done a manufacture RESET?

From my experience, the lower wash cycles are set to only do certain things. For example: the Delicate won't do a high speed spin, even though a high speed spin wouldn't really be destructive to delicates, but would force more water out of them! I usually just run a "Drain/Spin" after the Delicate cycle.

first how old is your machine. second is it under warranty? third have you tried to spin in all selections to see if your timer is working?

If the motor has a twin speed check the high speed winding. If the washer has a gear box for high speed , check and see if the high speed is initiated while it is on high speed spin.

Just a Idea, belt is slipping this is why when it is empty it works on high speed when full its to heavy and belt slips

Possible overloading or a situation many people do not consider is underloading ,if your machine has an out of balance sensor this will operate in either event and hold the spin to protect your machine .

Many high-end washers have two spin cycle speeds. The low speed is for delicate fabrics. Yours may be stuck in the low speed. Check that you are selecting the wash cycle with the high speed spin.

If you are and it continues to spin at the low speed then your controller is most likely at fault. Your gearbox could be bad too but it usually complains with a lot of noise.

If this helps you, please select YES to one of the first two ratings questions. Thank you, and Good Luck.

replace speed control board located right rear base of unit

don't try to measure the speed, does it spin the cloths dry? does it take too long to dry in the dryer after the "Slow" spin?

possibly a faulty "off-balance" detector, but not sure...try to purposely make it go off balance during wash...maybe a few pairs of sneakers?
