Tim for Model Number wtw5800sw0 My whirlpool washer fills just fine, it will not agitate or drain. If you put it on spin, it will start to spin slowly for around 3 to 5 seconds and stop. I have checked the lid switch and it works. I've checked the drain hose and there is no blockages. I'm at a loss and would love to not have to buy a new washer if I can help it. Any ideas as to what the issue may be?
