Electrolux No Spin / Spin Inhibit Condition

Washer fills and agitates but will not spin; clothes remain very wet at end of 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

Unbalanced load detected, Faulty door lock not confirming locked status, Worn motor brushes (if applicable), Faulty motor tachometer sensor

Safety: Unplug the washer before internal inspection.

Rebalance load: Open the door, redistribute heavy items (like towels or blankets), and remove some items if the drum is overfilled. Run a spin-only cycle.
Check door lock: If the door lock light does not come on, the machine may refuse to spin. Inspect and replace the door lock if necessary.
Inspect motor: Follow the earlier motor/tachometer checks if the machine attempts to spin but fails.
