My direct drive washer agitates, but does not spin, I changed the lid switch, but that didn’t work. would the machine agitate if the motor coupling needed to be replaced?
usually not, but check the coupling. Sometimes the washer sounds like it’s agitating but it’s really not. Does the washer drain?

Can I see the coupling without taking the motor off?
Check the coupling, another possiblity is the clutch is stuck or the brake is locked up.
On the inside of the cabinet and on the floor there seems to be some grease.
Grease is never a good sign…the only part with grease/oil is the transmission…
the washer will spin during some cycles. It sounds like it is trying to switch on, I wonder if it is the main controler? When it does spin it will spin through the whole cycle. Other times it will drain and never spin.
