    Why does my washer not spin?
    :confused:I can't understand why my washer can't spin. I've already checked my coupling and seems to be no problem. Can someone please help me with this?:(

    Hi, jonci22!

    Yes, the door switch would probably be the first thing to check.

    I recently had the same problem and found that I hadn't completely shut the door.

    Thanks!

    First of all, thanks for answering my question. Well I've come down (after trobleshooting switch and coupling) that it is the clucth. Why? Well I looked at the washer as it was entering the spin cycle and I realized that it sort of started to spin. Then I also noticed that the motor was on. So, I gave it a little spin for momentum and presto it spun. So, I suspect that it is not the motor or the transmission and that it might be the clutch. Where can I get the instructions for repairing the clutch? Please let me know.

    Thanks

RE: kenmore 70 series model 110.20712990 Type 111 top load washer. Won't spin. Humming noise and a little burning/hot smell when supposed to be spinning. Bypassing the lid switch did not correct the problem. Changed out the motor coupling with no luck... still a humming noise but no smell.
