Old Navy wants too much for free . we diyers learn by doing for our selves .when I can not fix I either junk it and get new or call the local repair service to have it cat least checked out .

Maybe you just need to change the motor brushes. YouTube has some great videos. Spares here on Fixya. Did you check out your filter?

Click if helped.

Possible that there is no output to the motor from the control panel in which case the control panel is faulty or if you can check the voltage on the motor at the time of program start , then it can be confirmed on the motor failure, motor capacitor failure.Also check the spindle for free run in which case it which case it can be jammed.

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,

This sounds very much like the motor is failing- often shown during the spin phases and OK on the normal wash phases.
Motors- and belts, which is sensible to change at the same time- are easy to be changed by a competent person:-
REMOVE POWER FROM THE MACHINE AND REMOVE THE BACK.
The motor support bolts, normally 2, should be loosened and the belt removed then remove the bolts completely
With the motor it is false economy to just have the brushes changed. Experience of others is that the brushes may only last months unless, that is, the motor is totally refurbished. Refurbishing includes skimming the commutator on which the brushes run. Without skimming the brushes do not sit firmly on the commutator but straddle it- the centre is often more worn than the outer part.
Unfortunately motors are not cheap- the motor for our 18+ yearold Bosch cost GBP250 but it will probably outlive us!
Often putting the new belt on is a bit of a struggle, even with the motor 'loose', because it is new and smaller!
Once on it should be tensioned by pulling the motor against the belt firmly- but not over tight- and the motor support bolts tightened.
ON NO ACCOUNT SHOULD ANY FORM OF LEVERAGE BE USED TO TENSION THE BELT. THAT COULD LEAD TO DAMAGE TO THE BELT, MOTOR AND BEARINGS- EXPENSIVE!

If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck,
John C

This sounds like the motor needs a new Carbon brush kit as it may be well worn.After 5 years this needs replaced......

Bottom right handside is a small window open it and u screw filter out to clean fluff and sometimes coins. Usually is the prob

Part number is 154740 around 36 dollars from http://automaticappliance.com/ How to video from YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_r8d93xPYw&feature=youtube_gdata_player Different model washer but same motor. Look up videos for how to replace the belt if you have trouble. Symptoms of worn brushes include weak or no spinning.

Get engineer to check the carbon brushes on the motor
