When I activate the spin cycle on panel and open lid and press lid switch the drum will begin to spin but the agitator runs back and forth at the same time and seems to be working against the drum in the spin cycle.When I release the lid switch the drum stops pretty quickly like there is some friction there. Could this be the motor coupler.

Go to my sticky above "replacing direct drive washer brake shoes" for info on this. Your agitator movement might just be normal. You can get take apart info at web site www.applianceaid.com
