How long show it take basket to stop spinning?
Model Number: WCSE4160B3WW Brand: GE Age: 5 - 10 years
I fixed the leak by replacing the tub seal and it seems to be running smooth through all cycles. Seems like it takes a while to spin down. What is normal? On a whirlpool direct drive the brake shoes stop it QUICK. This washer seems to take longer is this normal? Am I correct in that the brakes on this unit are not serviceable at all? Thanks!!

Rick, Yes you're correct, The transmission and brake assembly is a single unit and not serviceable. You'd have to tear down the machine, and replace the transmission. Part number: AP2046402 As for the "ramd down" brake operation at the end of the spin cycle, On average(most top load washers), it should only take a few seconds,or 2 to 4 revolutions of the tub before it stops(if it's working proper). Is yours much more than that. Is the tub still rotating when you open the lid completely ? it should rotate1/2 to 1 more revolution, at that point.

Thanks! I am hoping to not have to replace the transmission. I did not try opening the lid to stop the spin. I was observing with the front cover off. Would that change how quickly it slows if the lid was not opened?

Rick, No, it should not make a difference in how the unit is stopped. At the end of a cycle, raise the lid,any way you stop the tub from spinning, it should ramp down and stop in a few seconds. I am not aware of anything to do except, replace the transmission assembly.
