once you have agitator off +balance ring off top of tub, you will need a special spanner made for this machine

Are you having trouble removing the "tub" (translucent white plastic) or the "basket" (porcelain covered metal)? Actually, a no spin shouldn't require the removal of the tub. If all other cycles are OK it sounds like the high speed on your 2-speed motor took a hit. I have the same machine, but my low speed went out. Does yours "humm" when it goes to spin?

If the motor runs in spin, you have a slipping clutch. Need to go to my sticky "replacing direct drive washer brake shoes for info.
