washer is not draining

Washer Repair

Recently my washer had spinning issues but after I replaced the lid switch the machine started spinning again but then a few weeks later it stopped again. I opened the machine and looked into the couplers, even if they were not broken or damaged, I decided to replace them with new ones.

Now after replacing the lid switch and the couplers, the washer doesn’t drain and does not spin either but it does agitate.

I am looking for some help.

Thanks a million

Hi.

Disengage the motor from the transmission and the pump, lay it down, bypass the lid switch and see if it will work without the load. Does it make any noise?

Have you tried different speed settings? In normal, it agitates in medium speed but drains/spins in fast.

Thanks Simon and Fairbank56 for taking the time to answer my inquiry
I will try that tonight and let you know.

@Simon, no it doesn’t make any noise
@Fairbank56, Yes tried different speed modes and no change.

Basically the wash cycle fills and agitates just fine but when it gets to the spin cycle, it completely shuts down as if there is no electric connection. There is absolutely no response from the machine in the spin cycle, this is in addition to the no drain issue.

Hope that helps

Thanks

Have you bypassed the lid switch?

Simon, I believe I did but I can try again. Right now I am out of town for work assignment and won’t able to do it soon. I may have to just hire someone to fix the washer for me but I will try again and see what happened.

Thanks for your time and help.
