I think you have what's known as the "R11 and Q6 Problem".  The quick and costly repair method is to replace the circuit board.  The less expensive way is described at this Web site: 
http://members.shaw.ca/gavb/index.html.  I followed the steps for replacing the R11 resistor and the Q6 Triac on the circuit board and ti solved my no-spin issue.

The vendor that I used is Unicorn Electronics located at http://www.UnicornElex.com/.

Here are the parts that you need:

NTE5657 Triac-600VEM 0.8A
Item #: 49-6272
Price: US$3.63

3.9K Ohm 1/4 W Carbon Film Resistors 50 Pack Item #: 10-8086
Price: US$1.99

Maytag neptune washer model mah6500a, took the back off and the tub spins but still get the code Lr

Looks like another motor/motor control panel replacement. This machine has a faulty motor/motor control board, it has been re-engineered with a replacement. Has yours been replaced? Have you found the tech sheet behind touch panel and placed machine in service mode to test? We had the same issue, worked sporadically, didn't drain, got LR code then eventually stopped working. Check your spin in service mode, if it doesn't spin properly you should find out here. It is a very simple repair in all actuality. Contact Maytag and they will sell you the parts for a discounted price, make sure that you buy directly from Maytag, also check your boot very carefully since that part will also fail and allow water to get into the bottom of the machine where you have electronics.

Maytag Neptune TL clutch problems- Class Action Lawsuit??

I sounds like this is a common problem with the Maytag Neptune TL after about 3-5 years. Mine finally went out yesterday after several months of bearings getting louder all of the time. It looks like the bearings and the controller are gone. What happened to washing machines that last 15 - 20 years?

Maytag neptune fav9800aww has error for unbalance circuit always open or out of range

I had the same issue with FAV9800AWW, the Quick Spin Test showed "Machine cannot spin because the unbalance circuit is always open or out of range." Removed the Tub Displacement Sensor, disconnected the wire harness to the sensor, and found corrosion between the contacts, especially on the 12V DC pin. When I cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol and soft brush, discovered that the trace had corroded away, and so the board was not receiving the 12V DC input. Also had checked on the pins of the blue/white (signal) and pink (gnd), and was always negligible millivolt reading. The part number is Whirlpool 12002194. Ordered it from Appliance Parts Pros after reading various reviews. I found it cheaper other places, but those places got too many poor reviews for my taste.

Extremely loud noise during spin cycle of my Neptune dryer--just started happening in the last month. The dryer is probably 7-8 years old, so it's not the newer Neptune model.
