Motor Coupling
If the washer won't spin or agitate the motor
coupling might have failed. The motor coupling connects the motor to
the washer transmission. It is designed to fail if the washer is
overloaded in order to protect both the motor and transmission.
Drive Belt
If the washer won't spin or agitate, check
the drive belt. If the belt is broken or if it isn't tight on the
pulleys the washer won't spin or agitate properly.
Drive Motor
If the washer won't spin or agitate the drive
motor might be defective. This is not common. Check all of the other
related parts to this symptom before replacing the motor. If the motor
is visibly burned out or physically damaged, replace it.
Stator Assembly
If the washer won't spin or agitate the
stator assembly might be burned out. The stator is essentially one half
of a motor, it interacts with the tub by creating a strong
electro-magnet. If the stator burns out the washer won't spin or
agitate. Check the stator for continuity. This part is often
misdiagnosed.
Door or Lid Latch Assembly
If the washer won't spin or agitate the lid
switch assembly might be defective. This is a very common problem. The
lid switch assembly can fail either mechanically or electrically. Test
any electrical switches with an Ohm meter for continuity. The switches
should have continuity according to their design.
Door Lock Motor and Switch Assembly
If the washer won't spin or agitate the door
lock assembly should be checked. The door lock can fail either
mechanically or electrically. Test any switches on the door lock with an
Ohm meter. The switches should have continuity according to their
design.
Motor Control Board
If the washer won't spin or agitate the motor
control board might be defective. The motor control board provides
power to the motor as well as direction and force. If the motor control
board is defective the washer may not work at all or function properly.
I'm having this same problem, on my whirlpool ultimate care II machine. my question is what causes this. I did something different...I allowed my teenagers to wash clothes. I am wondering if they overloaded the machine or did something to it.
My washer will wash, then instead of switching cycles on it's own we have to turn it to rinse then it will rinse, but when we try to turn it to spin cycle it won't do anything.Just wondering could it be the gears or something?
My McClary washer misses a couple cycles. It goes from filling with water right to spinning. It misses the agitation and drain cycles. I tried a different (used) timer with no luck.
