| In order for the washer to be able to spin, the
motor has to be running. So if the motor runs,
but the washer spin poorly or it doesn't spin at
all, you need to check the following parts until
you find the problem.
The motor coupler:
The motor coupler is use between the motor and
the gearcase. The purpose of the coupler is to
turn the gearcase main shaft. So if the washer
is not spinning, check for a broken motor
coupler.
The clutch:
The gearcase turns the lower part or the drum of
the clutch. The clutch turns brake & drive tube.
If the clutch shoes or pads are worn out, the
clutch is going to slip and the washer will not
spin fast enough to remove the water from the
clothes.
The brake & drive tube:
The brake & drive tube is turn by the clutch. on
top of the tube is the basket drive block. If
this part is bad, the washer may not spin at
all.
The basket drive block:
This part is sandwiched between the brake &
drive tube and the spin drum. Remove the
agitator to check this part out.
The gear case:
The gearcase or transmission is the part that
turn the internal parts in order to make the
washer agitate or spin.If any of the these
parts are not working properly, the washer is
not going to spin properly or not spinning at
all. |
