I have a Maytag Front Load washer..... The machine appears to go through all of the cycles. On the final spins, the water is drained but the waher does not spin the clothes dry.... Is this the drive moter???? ( i ask because the drive motor is still under warranty. thank you

Try to make a smaller load. Watch the washer during the spin. Does it look slower or not?

When the clothes came out wet, i put them back in and put the washer back to the rinse/spin cycle.
The washer hardly moved/vibrated at all. so i took out all the clothes except for one peice. I reset it again and when the spin cycle finished( i had my hands on the washer and there was sound but very little movement of the machine), the peice that i left in the machine was in the same position as i left it.....

Sounds like the motor or the motor control board. Call for warranty service.
