Thank you for this video. We bought a house in the summer which came with this washing machine and the washer stopped doing the spin cycle recently. We were reluctant to buy a new washer due to the cost and found this repair video. We were able to order the part and repair the washer ourselves.

Thanks for the info, this was the fix for our 2005 Kenmore washer not running the spin-cycle properly.

This was extremely helpful, not just for fixing the machine, but also the heads up on looking for cheap parts online.   Thanks Scott.  You saved us parts and labor costs.

Clear portrayal of how to do it, great or rather outstanding dexterity, bring a certain intrigue to the whole video....

Excellent video, Scott. Thank you for this demonstration on how to replace a faulty door lock assembly.

[GFG]

That was perfect. Thank you so much for taking the time to make and share this video.

I had the exact symptoms so I replaced the door lock, and there was no change. So motor control?

[Euthymia]

In my experience, this issue can also be due to a clogged drain pump trap. All it needs is to be cleaned and the machine will start working again

1/10/2019 - Update - the solution worked! Now my washer is able to wash and spin dry!

I have a Kenmore Model 417 and it has the exact symptom as in your video - the spin cycle does not spin. The laundry are still very wet and the cycle stops very quickly. Will be replacing the door latch soon and give an update.

Thank you. I would use Vaseline on the door spring instead of any kind of soap that would corrode the metal. ☺️

I got slow spin like in your video but also making scraping sound with it.

[pjrox]

kool, I have a Kenmore He2, front load. Older model, no front digital hardware. Yesterday the spin refused to work and getting the door unlocked was next to impossible. The laundry was soaked. Your video looks like this might be my answer. Thanks..

[ProTurbo]

I replace the door latch still have the same problem also check the stator, it looks good no burn and it reads 12 ohms on all 3 cable...I have a maytag front load..thx

Hello,
Can you help with a Diplomat 8512 (old) not spinning. I’ve done what you said in video but do not have same terminal in the lock also it’s an integrated one too

[markconfer]

Scott. I just replaced the lock assembly but this did not solve the problem. The diagnostics run does not show any error codes. I see that you have recommended a new motor control board but wouldn't this create an error code. Thank you in advance! Mark

[paulb]

Will the pump spin if the door lock is faulty?

[norman]

Do these door locks come with the wax motor or is that another part that I need to order?

[jesse]

Hey Scott - thanks for doing this video. I am having a similar problem. I noticed mine was stuck on the final spin stage, not spinning, and making a loud noise that sounded like it was coming from the motor area. Not sure what it did during the other stages, but there wasn't any water in the tub. I sent you an e-mail yesterday about it. Does it sound like it could be the locking mechanism like you show here, or something else?

[Bill_Me]

Sooo even though the display says it’s locked it isn’t ?…

[TheBenChronicles]

If the door lock light indicates on, could the door lock still be the/an issue?
