  3. If all these measures do not work, then the then there would be some a problem with the controls, or the agitator solenoid may be broken. It’s time to take the help of the repair person.

What to Do If Washing Machine Does Not Spin?

If the washing machine does not spin, then you should check if the clothes have jammed or are unbalanced in the drum.

This is for the reason that the unbalanced clothes will also cause a washer to shudder. You should open the lid and reposition the clothes. This automatically will hence reset an off-balance shut-off switch.

Now you have to just close the lid. If straightening out the load does not stop the washer from shaking, then you should look at the feet and should make sure that they have properly adjusted to keep the washer sitting level on top of the floor.

You should give a check at the lid switch and the tab on the lid that strikes it. If the plastic tab is broken, then, in that case, the washer may halt during the course of the spin cycle.

If the switch does not click then you have to press and release it.

Just remove the switch, and the test it, and replace if required. You have to give a check at the machines’ drive belt.

It may be loose, or worn, or broken. You need to tighten the belt or replace it on the whole. It is possible that there have been some controls so take the help of the appliance repair person.

Method If Clothes Do Not Spin Dry
  1. If the clothes have to remain dripping wet after your washer’s spin cycle, then you can start by lifting up the lid as during the spin cycle. If the tub is not spinning, then you are facing the damaged motor coupler.
  2. If the tub is spinning, then you should recheck the load to make sure it is balanced. If you are certain the load is hence balanced but your clothes still come out dripping, You would be having the damaged motor pulley, tub bearing, belt, or clutch replaced.
  3. You need to make sure that the drain hose is not kinked. You have to check the tab on the lid that strikes the lid switch. If it is broken then the washer may stop during the drain cycle. You have to press and release the lid switch. If it does not click each time you do this then it for sure probably broken. You need to remove the switch, test it, and replace if required.
