Looks like there are two separate problems. The first problem is with the agitator and the second problem is with the spin.
What the washer does when it should spin? Does the motor run at this time?

i can not tell if the motor run when it suppose to spin the only thing i heard is like if the motor is stack, like a humm also i pull the motor apart i removed the motor coupler to checked it and it looks to be good , it has no cracks, no damage at all reading the posts i see that could be the clutch or something about the brakes ,i do not know if i still need to replace the motor coupler or how can i check the clutch . ABOUT THE OTHER PROBLEM I FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS ,THE AGITATOR DOGS ARE DAMAGE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACE MY ONLY PROBLEM RIGHT KNOW IS THE SPINING

(if you mean where the motor engages) ,i moved the transmition shaft when i turn the transmition shaft clock counterwise there is a moment that i can not move it any more ,but the opositive way it turns good and does not get stack. (If you mean from agitator)i can turn it both ways with no problem:o

Make sure the wires connected to the motor are not broken and the connection is tight. If there is nothing wrong then the problem can be a bad timer. - The timer Part number: AP3595646

I"m confused with the information you posted earlier. You posted in the first post: Quote:...also washer drain good... The washer drains when the motor turns in the same direction as needed for the spin. So the motor does turn! Later you posted: Quote:...when it suppose to spin the only thing i heard is like if the motor is stack, like a humm... That means the motor does NOT turn! So which information is correct? Gene.

Would the tub turn if you'll help it with your hands?
