Crosley Spin Cycle Failure

The washer will not spin but will drain water; clothes remain very wet at the end of the cycle.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

A failed lid lock or lid switch, a worn drive belt, a faulty clutch (top-load), or a defective motor control circuit.

Safety first: Unplug the washer.

Check lid lock/switch:

Most Crosley washers will not spin with an open or failed lid lock. Inspect and test the lid switch or lock for continuity when closed. Replace if defective.

Inspect drive components:

On belt-drive models, check the belt for wear or breakage and replace if needed.
On top-load models with a clutch, inspect for oil contamination or worn pads. Replace the clutch assembly if it slips.

If mechanical parts are good, the motor or control board may not be commanding spin and should be checked by a technician.
