Washer machine don't spin
For model number WTW5500BW0
Hi William,
Thank you for your question. If your washer will not spin, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the shift actuator, the lid latch assembly, the drive belt, the washer drive pulley and the drive hub kit. You will need to test the electronic parts with a multi-meter. Here is a link to one of our videos on YouTube that you may use as a general reference on how to use one, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWC44fHn0As. For the other parts you will need to perform a visual inspection to verify if they are damaged or worn. If they are, they will need to be replaced. We hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day.
