I had a problem with my whirlpool not always continuing the spin cycle. When I talked to a mechanic at the parts place, he mentioned that some whirlpools have a pause in the spin cycle. This is what I am having a problem with. It does not always continue. I have to lift the lid and shut it again to make it spin again. Has anyone seen this problem before?

I just tore the machine apart. New drive block (was good just looked corroded, center post gasket (I think it's called), dogs, and coupling. Checked the clutch and brakes while I had it apart and everything looks really good (took out transmission and spin tube). Just wondering what anyone thinks. It also had a new lid switch and timer recently and that didn't help either. This is just wierd.

Thanks
