Whirlpool Washer Won't Spin - How to Test and Fix
Today's machine is a Whirlpool Washer. If yours doesn't want to spin during operation, let's go through quite a few ideas to test components and fix your washing machines' issues.
In this video, you'll learn where to find your technician's manual, what the error codes mean, and which ones relate to the spin mode on this Whirlpool washing machine. I'll also show you how to force-test the spin and agitate modes to see if the machine really can spin, or if a part has truly failed. We'll also take a look at the components underneath, what they do, and how they could have caused the spin failure on the machine. The video is long, but I tried to be pretty extensive on the fixes.
