My machine continues to spin during the wash/rinse cycle. I opened it up to find broken pads. I looked it up on the internet and found that it may be the brake pads. I need to know where I can look to help me remove/install the pads correctly.

Depending on how handy you are, replacement of the brake pads can be a real pain. As an experienced technician I specialized in Amana/Speed Queen for a while. I recommend you call a service man to replace the brakes. Its worth your while and your fingers.

My Whirlpool Front Load Wasehr Model# GHW9250ML is having problems
spinning on the final rinse cycle. The machine shuts down and the letter
F appears on the digital read out.
Try looking to see if the little motor is spinning the drain pump. It is in the bottom right. Occasionally I get a small metal shard which locks the pump and therefore-no draining. You can undo everything and check the pump for blockage. Then if need be, replace the mechanisim. The parts are all on line, as is the manual. or call 800 776-3538
I would say that based on your problem description that the lid /door switch has a loose or faulty contact .. If you open and close it a few times..it starts to spin and yet when you open it.. it doesn't always stop the spinning.. It is either the switch or the actuator that bumps that switch.. That is where I would begin diagnosing the problem... Hope that helps..
sounds like you have a broken sety fo brake pads, just replaced a set today for same reason, open the lower acess panel and with a flashlight look into the bottom , your lookin for brake pads( theyre probably broken and laying under unit.)
