I have a Whirlpool LA9800XP Solid State Mark Series belt driven washing machine. A few weeks ago the final spin stop working. In spin mode, the engine runs and sounds normal but it does not spin. Power off/on and manually press spin button did not help. Engine runs with no spin still. But if wait for 10 minutes, power on and press spin button, it runs fine again. However the break time is getting longer. Now I have to wait 3~4 hours before the spin mode works again.
Initially I thought it was the lid switch went bad so I removed the switch and connected wires direct to bypass the switch. It was not help. So it's not the lid switch problem. Please advise what could be the problem and what part should I get to replace. Thanks in advance for suggestions! Jack
