My old Maytag washer won’t spin clothes dry. It fills, agitates, and drains fine, but it won’t spin – at least not with wet clothes in it.
When I totally empty the machine, I can get it to spin. But it makes a banging noise and the basket appears to be off balance.
Some other clues:
[LIST]
*]There’s a burnt smell coming from the washer when in the spin cycle
*]I checked the drain line and I don’t see any signs of blockage
*]I checked the lid switch and it works OK
*]We have a cleaning lady that routinely overfills the machine
[/LIST]
Any help would be appreciated – thanks!
