It is possible your motor is throwing the fault code for no reason, you can try this to see if it will work. Unplug the washer for 1 minute, plug back in and lift and close the lid 5 times. This clears all fault codes, run a load and see what happens. make sure the lid is closed when you plug it back in.

Juli Yes, this worked for me as well, I had unplugged the washer recently and plugged it back in quickly and since then the rinse spin was very slow....I tried unplugging for 1 minute and opening/closing the lid 5 times and now the washer spins like a top....thanks for posting!!!! you have saved us a bunch on money and time (for I was going to start taking it apart this weekend....) Thanks again!
