My whirlpool washer will agitate and fill....but will not spin or drain....have checked continuity in the lid switch....is it the motor or what?

Mark D for Model Number LSC9245BW1

Answer Hello Mark. Check and make sure the lid switch is working properly and make sure the strike on the lid is pressing the switch. If all of that is good, you will need to test for power to the motor. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Ramiro E for Model Number wtw5800sw0

Answer Hello Ramiro, You will want to check to make sure that the pump does not have something clogged in it. You can test by removing the clips from the pump and try to start unit. If the unit continues to do the same then the most likely cause would be the start switch. If it starts normally then it is a clogged or bad pump.

Washer starts in a full agitation mode, before it starts filling. Also clothes are wet at the end of washing cycle and you have to put machine on a spin cycle so they are not dripping. Timer has been replaced, had no effect. Any help would be appreciated. David

David for Model Number wtw57esvw

Answer Hello David, You will want to check the pressure switch and pressure hose. Make sure that the pressure hose is not clogged or kinked which would cause the unit to sense that the unit has water in it.

Hi..I replaced the timer on my washer a few months ago because the washer had completely stopped working. Replacing the timer got my washer working again for the most part except my washer's spin cycle has not worked at all since. The problem is that once the wash cycle is over I always have to open and close the lid to start the spin cycle and the lid switch checks out fine. What else do I need to check?

Wayjer for Model Number 110.23812100

Answer Hello Wayjer, You may want to check to see if you have a partial blockage in your drain pump or drain lines. Also check your pressure hose and air dome to ensure that it is not kinked or clogged.

Hi the washer dont spin or drain. Do you think its the motor start switch.

Ed for Model Number whirl pool lte624/aw0

Answer Hello Ed, With the unit not spinning or agitating you should first check the motor coupling 285753A. A broken motor coupling will cause no agitation or spin. You may also want to check continuity on the lid switch 3355458to make sure you have continuity when the lid is closed. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

After a complete wash cycle, the clothes comes out soaking wet. When I manually turned the timer to high spin, the spin speed seems very low to me. Is there a centrifugal switch in the circuit to increase the speed to high? All I can find for replacement parts is a motor switch 8529896. Does this control the speed or is it just a motor starting switch?

Mick

Answer Hello Mick, The switch on the motor kicks out the start winding for the initial start-up of the motor. The issue you are having is either going to be a brake not dis-engaging, an article of clothing between the tubs, a bad motor, or a bad spin bearing. This is all speculation since there is no model number. Please re-post with the model number and we will go into further detail.
