Not, mysteriously... the last 2 loads finished on their own.
ANY IDEAS?? I dont know the sequence of the wash cycles. At 7min it pumps and spin. But the diagnostics mode spin never indicated a problem. So that leaves what??? A switch or pump issue??


I have the same issue. Did you ever get this figured out?

I just replaced the drum seals and bearings. Before this repair the machine was loud but would complete a cycle. Now after the repair the bearings are quiet but the machine stops 7 min before the end of the cycle, it stops during the final spin. It starts this phase of the cycle over and over until finally offering an error on the LCD screen a while later. Since the entire machine was taken apart for the bearing job I may have knocked something. Just dont know where to start???

THE PROBLEM
The washer doesn't finish the cycle

THE ERROR CODE
The LCD screen shows "the washer did not spin due to an unbalanced load"

WHAT HAVE I TRIED

DIAGNOSTIC MODE
Spin test in diagnostic mode works fine. There are no error codes during the test. Low RPMS have a little vibration. But 350 to 1000 is smooth.

UNBALANCE SWITCH
I tried disconnecting the safety switch and bypassing with a jumper wire. This has no affect.

TUB DISPLACEMENT SWITCHES
I tried pressing these during the final spin. This had no affect. Pressing them gave no errors. I also tried bypassing the bottom switch with a jumper. This has no affect. I haven't tried bypassing the side switch.
