My washing machine does everything it is supposed to do. It fills correctly, drains and all that but will not spin. It makes the sounds like it is going to spin but does not. There are not burning smells or anything. What could this possibly be.

Remove the front panel of the washer and check for a broken belt at bottom of washer between motor pulley and main drive pulley. Pulleys and belt should rotate freely with washer off. If ok, check the blinking LED on top right side of motor/inverter board for error codes. Normal is LED blinking on/off at about 1 second interval. An error is indicated by faster flashing and then off within a 6 second interval. The number of flashes in the 6 second period is the error number.

Eric Looks like the belt is ok, kind of confused though since this dryer if very basic and doesn't have a screen that build blink.

Dryer? I thought this was a washer? Anyway, the LED is a very small indicating "lamp" on the top right side of the inverter board. May be easier to view from right side of board. Eric
