Default long cycle on washer
Model Number: LAT9304AAE   Brand: Maytag   Age: More than 10 years   

I've noticed my washing machine has been taking 2 hours + for the complete cycle to complete. Normally it would have taken 1/2 hour. It seems it is getting stuck on the last spin cycle. When it is finished with the complete cycle, the clothes are almost dry from spinning so long! Then last night during the last rinse cycle, it just started humming and I could not get it to spin out the water. We replaced the timer in February of this year, could it be that timer again, or something else?

You have a Kingston timer that you can't apart, so you will need a meter to check things. I would start by measuring the motor current and also see if your timer motor has voltage to it during spin
