I had a problem with the not API Ning thing so I replaced the clutch assembly. When everything was put back together, I ran a empty load to test and now it won't stop spinning after each rinse cycles and spin cycles. So as the water is filling up it continues to spin until it stops. It makes a small grinding noise when starting the spin cycle. Agitates, drains, and spins but doesn't stop almost like the brakes no longer work. Before I replaced the clutch it stopped with a big klunky sound but it stopped. Please help!!!

Typically, when you pull the transmission, it will pull the basket drive down just a little bit. Before reinstalling the transmission, you must grab the brake cam driver by hand, rotate it CCW while pushing up to make sure the basket drive, which has the brake shoes on it, is fully seated up into the brake hub.

Yes, when you turn that, the brakes should move inward so that the basket drive can be fully pushed up. Then you can test by rotating it CCW which should cause the basket to rotate and the brakes should grab when you release it. If this turns out not to be the problem, then you need to check the drive block. You must remove the agitator to get to the drive block. The drive block and tub nut securely fasten the inner basket to the basket drive. If the drive block is worn out the basket can still rotate freely even though the basket drive has stopped.

So after I did what you said it fixed the problem temporarily. I got under there again today and was able to turn the clutch cw and watched as the spring expand as I turned. I then turned it ccw and the problem was once again solved. However by the end of the wash cycle it went back to its old ways. How or what do you think the problem is?? Looking for your help once again...
