We have been told to test the motor and the speed control box, but we do not know how to do it on this machine, since the instructions we have are for washers that only agitate in one direction. This washer seems more complicated. We also don't know if it might be another reason it isn't working. Would anyone be able to give us some help?

The hose that comes from the bottom of the tub to the pump, has a filter in it. If it is clogged, it wont spin. check it and see. If not it most likely would be the motor control model in the bottom back left corner. Tom ApplianceEducator.com
