Thank you for actually giving real suggestions to determining the problem! My washer company site only had dumb suggestions like, ‘is the door closed?’ ‘Is the setting on low or delicate?’ Useless! But your info is so helpful. Thanks again!
There is a latch inside the door. If the door is not properly shut then the dryer will not run, or washer will not start it will be in a standby mode.
I’m curious, what else did they suggest?
Switch broke years ago. Twisted the wires together and bypassed the switch. Clutch got weak so put an extra washer by the spring and cleaned the oil leaking from the transmission out of the clutch drum with brake cleaner. Had a spring break that helps stabilize the tub on the spin cycle. Twisted a new hook on the end and reattach it with a short loop of coat hanger wire.
Lots of stuff has broken on our old Roper washing machine but haven't had to buy a part yet. Lol
Had to buy a new drum belt for the matching Roper drier and the control dial has been shot for years. Just hit the start button and it still works like it has since new. Takes forever to dry a full load of laundry. Heating element glows and the ducts are clean. Believe it had poor air flow from the get go.
Glad there are plenty of do it yourself videos to help me keep these low quality Ropers going. Miss my old bare bones basic GE washer and dryer.
Oh.
And the adjetator likes to occasionally eat clothes. Down at the bottom of it are four fins with a small gap over the base plate that catches clothes and has ripped more that a couple fairly new shirts.
Washing machine only fill and drains won’t spin
My first washer and dryer (and refrigerator, upright freezer, and chest freezer) all lasted "forever", call it twenty years or more. I still have that first washer and dryer out in the shop, doing yeoman service as sturdy metal-topped tables with storage room inside, and a two good electric motors and pumps should I ever want to DIY something with them. The wife just wanted something new, with modern features. Fine with me; we certainly got our money's worth out of the old set. I think for the washer it cost about two-fifty a month, and a little less for the dryer. Small change, anyway. The new one we bought back then just died after a piddling five and a half years - cost about ten bucks a month. Still cheap, but not as cheap as the good old daze. I guess the manufacturers realized they could not stay in business building the type of quality products that would last for twenty years or more.
thank very much
for videos
thanks you've been a great help
how has he been a great help
My Maytag washer with a stator type of motor had a little water at the bottom of it. Realized it was the bearing, problem it is you can't just replace the bearing it requires the whole tub and bearing assembly. But it was actually easier to replace than I thought. Used to have another type with the coupling, you can tell when it's the coupling if there's little bits and pieces of plastic down below and it's also pretty obvious when you lift a washer up you can actually see the coupling with the prongs broken off.
Top load washer won’t spin:
1. Defective lid switch
2. Worn motor coupler
3. Broken or worn drive belt
4. Damaged stator/rotor
5. Worn clutch
6. Defective drive motor
1. checked, good lid swith
2. checked, good motor coupler
5. good clutch
Dear Hugh Jay. How doe you determine what exactly is wrong? Re your answers, is it: All the above? Or which one(s), please! How does one tell which ones are defective?
Bless you ❤️🙏🏾
Excellent help.
Excellent video, clear, concise, and easy to follow.
Bingo on first reason. Thanks!
On an LG top load washing machine, is the washplate supposed to move independently of the outer washtub, or is that an indication that the splines on the washplate are stripped ? Thanks for the videos.
well this may not be my issue just got told its making to much noise and may not be spinning so obviously need to check but looks simple to fix. i know the belt part needs fixed just been using duck tap lol but I hope this issue isnt costly for my brothers sake lol. Thanks for these videos it has help me a lot and saved me hundreds
I have a GE, my agitator does not spin but the bottom portion does as it’s 2 parts. Agitator is loose but unlike other videos where they take out the fabric softener cup and the plastic to get to the nut. I cannot get the plastic off as the ridges are worn down and almost impossible to get off. I’m pretty sure the agitator is just loose but I have no idea how to tighten it
How do you get into diagnostic mode? I remember you have to hold several buttons at the same time. These shity washers wont last more than 3 years. The luckily I have a spare washer on standby that's 20 years old. However I still want to get this fixed
Hii very good information thanks alot but my machine also not spin but it spin for alsmot 15 sec when I force on it Manually isit pblm with my motor?
I have an affinity top load washer and need to replace the springs that are located under the lid and connect to the cabinet somehow. Anyone know how this is done.
My Maytag stop spinning, drains ok. has no belts, looks like a direct drive system. Model A612,
serial # 027054 . I can't move the auger/spinner at all.
OMG! It worked! I have a GE too tho
It donnt wash or start up.
My washing machine won't spin and/or start cycle. I can hear/see the shift actuator move back and forth and then the motor tries to spin and gets like maybe 1/4 turn and stops. It will do this a few times and then just stop. Do you have any idea?
I had a replacement clutch kit and the parts fit too tight. I greased them a little bit and it seems to have fixed the issue.
Ah, this is exactly what mine is doing. My fault honestly, I overloaded it all the time. Will look into getting a new clutch!
Help! Will agitate but stops before rinse and spin. couplers? are good and replaced lid switch
My name is Marsha Blalock and I watched your video on washer not spinning, and I tried the demonstration but it did not work. The washer
only spines out of the washer, but not on the clothes. Need to know how much you charge
to check the washer out.
but very...helpful!

My top load whirlpool 20 year old washer doesn't seem to extract as much water as it used to. I replaced the motor to tranny coupling which was partly broken and measured the spin RPM at ~550 rpm.
The clutch seems ok, not too worn - anything else?
I just want to learn how to use my new washer help!!!!it's brand new, the guide is not very simple 4 a simple person lol
What Brand and Model of Washer do you have?
The motor on my washer (Has no belt) runs when its in spin cycle, but doesn't spin. Could this still be the lid switch being faulty?
How do you get out something wrapped around the agitator?
Thank you very helpful!
my sackable engages but will not spin it is somehow locked i checked lines and there's nothing in them could it be a bad motor?
Great information. I have a Kenmore 400 that will not spin.. the lid switch is clicking .. the pump is draining the water out.. Of your options in this videos, what should I look for for my machine. Thanks
Colleen Lassie i have the exact washer with exactly the same problem. plz let me know if you've found a solution as i will do the same if i find one.
my maytag bravos 300 series washer will not spin at 19 minutes remaining to the cycle any suggestions?
Have a whirlpool wtw5000dw1. Spin cycle was not working. Hooked spin motor up and watched. The motor is running so I suppose it is just the drive belt. All else seems fine
My washing machine charges the water but does not make any cycle and in the manual could identify the problem with a count of lights that blink on the control panel but in a previous repair I lost that manual. Please could determine the problem and its solution. The light blinks 4 times is from a general electric washing machine, mod wwse5240g1ww
my washer is a kenmore Elite 110.27032600 that just stopped spinning, of course it is mid cycle. It is making a humming noise that stops and starts, but no spin. the tub freely moves in both directions by hand. how do I tell if the stator is what actually went bad or if it might be the position sensor or bearing? I don't want to order a lot of parts i don't need.
Mikes Tek I have the same problem
Same
Dolores Montijo water still in tub? If not, it's the motor coupling
My Whirlpool Model LSRS100HQO won't spin and just making noise, what part should I replace?

hi. sir mam way may tosiba top load waching machine nit spin slow the motor is moving the spin but the eror E2 how to repair
My GE won't spin. Just makes clanking noises and moves back and forth a little. . I put a magnet on the lid switch so I can have the door open. I gave the tumbler a little push and now it's working. What could the problem be?
Check the starter capacitor
Mine is weird, the spin cycle doesn't happen during the draining unless I open and close the lid, then it acts normal. It's annoying to run up and down the stairs just to "manually" activate the spin.
I have a Whirlpool LSN1000kq0, direct drive. It does everything except spin. Motor runs. The drive coupler is good. It fills and agitates. Door switch is bypassed.
Does anyone know what changes, or shifts, to cause the washer to spin? Is this a function of the transmission? Thanks
I have the exact same issue on my Whirlpool. Still havent figured out the cause.
I have a very old Kenmore #101.82680100. The washer use to wash and spin with the lid completely open. A few days ago, the tub finally stopped spinning. I ran the wash cycle again, and the washer agitates and drains, but does not spin. Is it a faulty door switch, clutch or transmission that I should be focusing on? Thank you In advance!
Jetli _Notme I have the same problem. Did you ever figure it out?

My Amanda washer, fills up washes, drains the water, but don’t change to rinse cycle, for it to spin
Amanda model NTW4516FW2 wash machine won't start
Need solution why pump continues beyond the spin marker. Within 2 weeks the cycle from drainage to spin they worked intermittently where that pump stops just before spin marker and spin completes to end of cycle finishing or pump continues beyond the spin marker but won't automatically spin to the end.
My question is what senses the water level had drained and the pump can stop running, then the spin can start? Just before the spin starts I could hear a transition before the spin starts slowly then increases.
One note, if I now start the dial just 1-2 clicks before the spin marker then I can see the dial move to and pass the spin marker but the spin does not happen and the pump would continue until the end.
Another note, if I monitored or noticed the spin cycle did not come on I was able to manually select any other spin cycle or even the same wash cycle and the spin would start the spin then it goes to the end. But now I can't do that. The pump continues beyond the spin marker. Lid switch has continuity. No spin actuator underneath. Coupling is great! Kenmore Series 70, 110.2683269. Is the problem the main selection switch or some thing else?
Possibly the timer assembly
my machine fills the water and stops, doesn't spin at all. no sound no clicking sound. what's going on? thanks for the education
Michael Mike mine too
Michael Mike i had the same problem with mine, disconnected the water pump and there was a sock stuck in it, I just removed it and that solved my problem..
Our Whirlpool Centennial top loader has an intermittent problem where it will drain but not spin. I am assuming it has something to do with the water level sensor. If I unplug it and jostle it about a bit, it usually regains its mind and continues its assigned task. This machine has no fancy schmancy indicator lights like most of the ones I've seen ion the videos. Any thoughts?
Buy a new one
Unplug the washer for 1 minute plug it back in open the lid six times within 30 seconds should reset the motor
@@worstnightmare9772 is this a joke lmao
My ge moffet washer wash n spin sometimes,, won’t spin on rinse cycle
i had the same problem took the lid magnet off fooled around with the other part of the magnetic switch and now working good again!
I have a samsung top loader wont spin water out
This isn't my problem. I have a newer model washing machine, that shuts down if the load is unbalanced. You can try and try to drain and spin, but if it is still unbalanced, it will automatically refill with water, and try again. Then it will shut down, if the new refill doesn't work, leaving clothes soaking wet. I've tried removing items, adding items, etc... It is a nightmare!
My Samsung washing machine model WA18F7S8 18kg do not spin with clothes and empty machine complete the spin cycle when i put clothes in it .start spinning but as soon as it tooks speed it stops with a cling
My Whirlpool Washer LSQ8000LQ3 would go through all the cycle, but will not do the final high spin cycle
Michael Chambers I had the same problem. Did you figure it out?
Electrolux Hydrosonic wash EWT704S 7kg it wont spin
please help me!!! I have a maytag bravos series 300 washer, model #MVWB450WQ0 . the first code it put out was dl so my husband replaced the swithch two times. I see that in your web site it has the causes because the door wont lock so the machine will not wash. It now has the code du. We have done research and it says that it's still the switch. All the lights come on the machine but when it comes on no matter if we unplug the power cord and plug it back in the code is still there and it wont work. Can you PLEASE PLEASE maybe give me a little advice. Tired in TN and too much dirty laundry please help????? thank you so kindly for your info and videos
+Angela Gray The control board or a bad wire could also cause a dl code.

LG only washing machine on off on off running
For me the issue was that the socket my washer is connected to was turned off so I pressed the "reset" button and it started working again.
How to get an item wrapped in the machine out
Add worn hub Assembly under the wash plate for why washer won't spin your clothes out. I have had to replace my washers several times. Cheap plastic parts.
My washer did wash the clothes but it didn't drain the water, nor will it spin.
Crosly washer starts spinning then it slow down and stops all other functions work
Mine just won’t spin, makes a clanking noise Didn’t spin at all
Oh yeah see how easy it is? The panel just comes right off...
I'm here because my washer just makes like this grinding sound I guess when you put it on spin and close the lid.
same as mine, have you found out the cause ? and has it been fixed
No I haven't. Ended up just selling it for $40.
sounds like it was just the coupler ...couple bucks.and.like 10min. of.time

Check your water pump for debris
Not a word about a motor reset: go elsewhere.

They give no refunds if they tell you the wrong solution. Buy part somewhere else.
Or buy a new washing machine!
fuck off. That shit is not cheap!
Why didn't u show the other super affordable way to possibly repair the machine for around $10!!!!!!!!!! Pull off the front panel and replace the little white thingy or remove the little white thingy cover wires with duct tape to avoid ever needing repairs again - jerk!!!!! 🤬
