John January 16, 2023 for Model Number ITW4300SQ0 Amana/Ingils/Whirlpool washer does not spin in rinse cycle. It does spin after the wash cycle. Was an intermittent problem but now more frequent. No noises from the drive system.
1 Answer John, after the rinse fill and agitation has completed, there should be a drain phase followed by a spray and spin phase. If it is during this portion that the washer is not spinning, the timer WP8572976 would be the most likely cause of failure since it will spin properly in every other part of the cycles. Read More...
Jl February 13, 2017 for Model Number 110.26432502 - Kenmore Ok, have a Kenmore 110.26432502. The symptom was no spin. Replaced the dogs on the spinner (they were gone), Replaced the clutch, brake and coupling. Tried cycling through the timer. All functions seem ok, except no tub spin. Let me qualify that. The tub DOES spin on the rinse cycle but does not spin on the final spin cycle. The pump does come on and opening the door stops all functions (which leads me to call the lid switch good).When I put my multimeter on the Y wire on the timer (P#8572976) I see 120V and the agitator/tub spin (on the drain before Rinse), however at the final Spin I see nothing on either the B/W wire which if im interpreting the drawing right should be the high speed spin? In short, everything but the HIGH speed spin at cycle ends works, is it the timer?
1 Answer JL, Based on the testing that you did, this issue would be most likely caused by a faulty timer. Read More...

Mary June 25, 2015 for Model Number LSQ7533JQ0 Hi, I washed a small load of clothes and then after washing, the machine stopped and did not advance to spin. Even when I tried to advance it manually it did not spin out the water. It does nothing now. We ordered and received a new timer and installed it, but it still does nothing. What could be causing this? My machine still has the wash water sitting in it, it won't drain, spin, rinse or wash any more. Thank you.
1 Answer Hello Mary. You need to check and see if the lid switch 3949247V is broke or bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. 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 Read More...
Michael February 20, 2014 for Model Number rtw4340sqo roper I have tested the lid switch and it works. I have checked all of the parts under the machine. I believe it is the timer. It goes through the cycles but does not spin. How do you confirm it is the timer?
1 Answer Hello Michael, The most common issue with this style unit is the lid switch. Be aware that the lid switch has to be actuated and if the lid hinge screws are loose or missing, this will cause the lid switch not to be properly activated. The next thing you need to check is the wires to the motor capacitor. If they lose connection it will cause the same issue. If you want to check the timer, put the unit into the spin cycle and test at the motor connector for 120Vac. If there is no voltage there, you need to back up the circuit to locate where the voltage stops. If there is voltage there, the motor has failed. Read More...

John July 30, 2013 for Model Number RTW4340SQ0 My washer fills with water at the start of the cycle and starts agitating. It will continue to agitate without advancing through the cycle. The washer agitated for over 1 hour without the timer moving and I had to manually stop it at that point. Is this a timer issue? This problem occurs on both the gentle and normal cycle.
1 Answer Hello John. Based on the information you provided, the timer is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Willard February 13, 2013 for Model Number RTW4340SQO Machine fills with water but does not through the cycles.
1 Answer Hello Willard, You will want to do a continuity test on the lid switch WP8318084. With lid closed there should be continuity. If there is no continuity then the switch is bad and needs to be replaced. Read More...
Francis June 04, 2012 for Model Number 110.26432503 Washer starts washing. You lift lid up,washer stop. Close lid washer does not start up again, only a low buzzing sound from the timer can be heard.
1 Answer Hello Francis. Check and make sure the lid switch is good on the unit. If not, replace the lid switch assembly. If it is good, see if there is power going to the motor on the unit. If there is power going to the motor and the motor does not run, replace the motor. If there is no power to the motor, and the timer is humming, you will need to replace the timer WP8572976 in the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.
