Common Reasons Your Washer Won’t Spin
Here are some primary causes, but other hidden issues could be involved.

Drive Belt Issues
A frayed or broken belt can stop the drum from spinning. It’s a common issue that’s often caused by wear and tear.
Faulty Lid Switch (Top-Load Units)
Washers won’t spin if the lid switch doesn’t engage. If the switch is broken, your washer stays on pause.
Worn Motor Coupling
This part connects the motor to the drum. When it fails, power can’t reach the drum to start spinning.
Blocked Drain Pump
If your washer isn’t draining properly, it may skip the spin cycle. Debris or small items can clog the pump.
Unbalanced Load or Suspension Faults
A heavy or uneven load can cause excessive movement. If the machine senses imbalance, it may cancel the spin for safety.
Control Board Malfunction
If the control board can’t communicate with the motor, the spin cycle may not activate at all.
