I have a kenmore 44092500 front load washer and starting having trouble with the spin not working. I checked the motor and motor seems to work. I tried to tub the tub but tub will not turn at all. Any suggestions on what the problem might be?

You mean the tub is turning during the washing cycle , but not during the spin cycle?
.
If so, there is something wrong with the spin circuitry.
If the tub is not moving at all, there is a mechanical problem.
Please let me know (click my handle).
.
Check the following :
Empty the drum.
Remove the power lead and put it on the ground in front of you: Safety First!
Open up the rear of the washer.
Can you move the drum wheel?
If so remove the drive belt.
Can you now spin the drum by hand easily?
If yes, the problem is in the spin circuitry or spin motor (a different part of the washing motor)
If no, the problem is either in the drum bearing, or something is a physically blocking the drum.
Check the filter assembly. Often a wire from a bra may get stuck there, and block the tub.
Contact me with that information.
