Maytag Neptune washer machine won't spin or fully drain

SOURCE: MAYTAG NEPTUNE WON'T SPIN OR DRAIN

If it can't drain, it shouldn't spin. Pump blocked? Broken pump? Level sensor broken?

Does it give an error code? What is your mod # ?

It is so common that the washing machine can make terrible noise in many ways and is a common fault. In all occasions it is important that your observation is most important and so is vital to the identification /rectification and solution. If you have noticed that machine is vibrating when it is running then the motor /drum suspension has to be inspected. Since these fittings are located on the underside of the machine it is important that you look for the noise with a good inspection lamp. Manually turn the motor and drum and listen for the noise, if so the motor bearings, the drum agitator shaft and fittings must be checked. Also the suspensions which include the shock absorbers and springs, the body clamps must be checked to be in correct alignment and not changed in position. Tightening of the mounting is also very important. Finally in most cases a drop of OIL or smear of grease on the moving parts cane solve most issues.

Now in this case the failure of the motor drive or the agitator shaft could have resulted in total failure of the spin cycle. Now remove the panel and check manually the movement fo the motor and the main drive, if the shaft is struck up or if the motor bearings/bushes are worn out. It is important to check the voltage on the motor as the absence of the voltage means that the controller has some fault - possible failure of the drive after a heavy load of the malfunction.

Try either capacitor or motor brushes. Your voltage isn't quite high enough or it's not getting through

Inside the main control switch has many studs of plastic. They get worn out and don't work. See if it works on a different cycle like delicate. No work; then you need a new control switch. Either way you need a new control knob switch!
