This washer is nothing but problems, Now it doesn't spin the clothes Clothes are still wet, ( It's not off balanced not a heavy load ) Well, it's not that . Could it be the door switch again? Would the switch keep it from spinning

I put it on drain spin, it would drain and adjatate but won't spin. Could the door switch keep it from spinning? I just had that replaced six months ago. If it's that again, is there a way of jumping out the door switch. If if keeps going out I don't want to keep replacing it.

Souns like it is the switch. It is put on there for safety so it will stop when the lid is opened. Yes it can be jumpered around but you are giving up the safety factor. Yet, years ago we didn't have them on

Yep, it's the door switch. The part is not that expensive, it's just the repairdude that is expensive. While I was waiting for my switch the repairdude disconnected and bypassed my door switch and my machine spun just fine and dandy. Sure beats the heck out of a wringer washer.
