The spin cycle does not work

It may be your lid switch is broken. Can you see a slot where your top lid has a 3/4 in shaft that goes into the slot when closed? If there is no slot - then it is under the top at the back of the lid, there is a rod that actuates the lid switch. Maybe it just came apart. The housing of the lid switch mountings break a lot too -- It is plastic. You can get some wire bread twisties and close it up again for temporary fix. but you need to call a service guy to fix it right. You can tell if you switch is working by depressing the button on the micro switch. If it clicks, it works. See if you can secure it in the clicked position and it will spin. DO NOT put your hands in the spinning unit. The lid is the safety -and you just eliminated the safety
