Last night when I went to put clothes from the washer to the dryer, they felt very wet. I found out that the spin cylce was not working at all. Is that an expensive item to repair, or do I need to purchase a new washer???? A friend had told me that to get whites whiter, pour some vinegar into the rinse water. I did that - and then when the batch was done, I found it had not spun the water out. I doubt that the vinegar caused it - but who knows????
Never heard the vinegar in the rince water thing but who knows! do you know if the washer drum is working in the wash cycle? as you know it should tumble in both directions. if you ca check that it would be a big help to know if the motor is working. it could be something as simple as the belt broke. so get back to me with the answer and we can go from there. thanks

same problem when washer gets to spin cycle it does not work. I took the front off and squeezed the rubber boot and the water cycled out. This problem repeats with me having to continue to do the same action every couple times we use the washer.
Frigidaire 16 cycle 3 speed washer will not spin during rinse cycle,water drains out but tumbler just sits and makes a grinding noise like the sound of a bad bearing.Ican turn the tumbler freely by hand counter-clockwise but when I try to turn it clockwise it makes a metallic click sound and will not move.Motor and belt seem to turn freely when moved by hand both directions.A buddy told me it was the timer,any help would be appreciated.
