70 Series washer won spin

[fungas]

Kenmore 70 series washer agitates but when it get to spin cycle it doesn't spin. It clicks into spin cycle but no action (sounds as if a belt snapped but there is no belt in this machine?). I changed the coupler. Can anyone offer any advise  . Thank u in advance

Model 110.92573200

Hi fungas,

Could you post the full model number for us? The model number can be found on the model/serial number tag that is located on the washer.

Sears/Kenmore model number starts with three digits and end with eight.

For example. 110.12344678

Check picture below for possible model number tag locations.



Thanks for posting your questions.

The coupler is great place to start but if that is not it then it could be any number of things. Check out these repair pix:

Washer will not spin

"Sounds like" <charades> a lid switch, but as Al said, without a model number it is kind of hard to steer you as to what to look for.

Sorry for the tardy reply. the model # 110. 92573200. Hope it helps you help me

I have added the correct model number information to the topic, thanks.

Sounds more like a failed clutch assembly, which includes the brake release cam. Since you replaced the coupler and still no spin action, just noise, this is the best logical solution. Replacing the clutch is no big deal as seen here. The clutch kit comes with a new brake cam to make the machine run like new again.

late as usual (two months) but changed the clutch assembly. yeah! washer spins again but now it's filling up without stopping and not washing. question is how can i fix this? is it a easy fix?

p.s. you guys are great and thanx for all your great help so far

Glad to hear the clutch fixed your spin problem. Did this new problem start after you replaced the clutch?

If it started months later and had nothing to do with replacing the clutch it would be best to start a new topic.

[fungas]

started after clutch installed. can the two be connected?

[Repair-man]

Yes, you probably pinched the clear water pressure tubing at the rear of the cabinet when you put it together or the tube came off the pressure switch.

[JWWebster]

Their is a channel running down the back wall of the washer. If the tube ain't in that grove then it will be pinched. Water level switch won't know to shut down.

[fungas]

thanx i had a feeling it was something of that sort. i will check and keep you posted w/ result.

[fungas]

you guy are the tops. washer fixed. once again i thank you guy enough

Glad to hear you got it repaired.
So was the problem a pinched clear water pressure tube or did you find something else?
