my machine does not always do a final spin. If I open the lid and manually retate the drum a bit then start the spin cycle again it usually works. Is there a drive belt on this model that could be worn?

This model does not have a belt, which is a good thing. It does have a clutch, so that is likely your problem.

This video will show you how to check it out, and check the brakes using the info in the STicky by Richappy at the top of this page also.

You were right on target with your repair recommendation. I ordered a new clutch assembly and it did the trick. Also, the video you attached turned out to be critical in order for me to make the repair. I had not been able to find a repair manual, and even if I had I still think I would have needed the video.

I have one other minor issue with the washer, the bleach dispenser doesn't work. It backs up with water even if I don't put bleach in it. Is there a solenoid or something that might be broken?

Thanks again.
