This 10 year old washer stopped spinning. Washer fills, agitates, and drains fine but doesn't spin. Sounds like it did during normal rinse and spin cycle when it was working but tub not turning. Is this obviously a belt replacement or could it be something else? Very little to no troubleshooting available online for this old model. Appreciate any help to diagnose and fix. Thanks. Steve
Maytag LAT4915 Washer not spinning

There is only one belt that controls agitation and spin on a Maytag washer. The other belt operates the pump. Lean the machine back and check for both belts in good condition. Motor reversal is what changes operation from agitation to spin. Does the gearcase pulley turn easily by hand in both directions? You might have a garment that slipped between the basket and outer tub that is simply binding the basket.
