Maytag washer stops spinning after rinse water has mostly emptied and then shuts down cold. I ran it with no clothes in it - turned the timer to the spin cycle. It filled up with water, spin started until most water emptied, then shut down cold. Will not restart unless I set it to the beginning of the spin cycle again, then it will again fill with water and repeat the pattern. Belts a little loose but even if belts removed the motor will not run if dial is turned past the water fill part of the spin cycle. I am guessing the timer is bad. Lid switch is ok - checked with ohm meter. I don't believe this model has any solenoids.

Ok I figured it out. The bulb on the tube which comes up to the vacuum fill switch was filled up with gunk. I cleaned it out and voila! It worked. For a while. I had taken the tub apart and apparently didn't get it back together right because it is binding now. The belt started squealing and smoking. But at least I know what the problem is/was. I will fix it tomorrow. I know one other time I took the tub apart and had trouble getting it back together. Next time I will just clean out the bulb and forget about taking the tub apart.
