I have a Whirlpool top loading washing machine, it won't empty the water out or spin.?

Machine fills %26amp; agitates ok but won't drain or spin. Do I have a solenoid fault ?


WM is a Top Loader - Model # 7244EI have a Whirlpool top loading washing machine, it won't empty the water out or spin.?
the lid switch could be bad...this will keep it from doing anything in spin model ..this is easily checked.....for an easy check ..unplug washer, remove wires from switch hook them together and tape then see if machine will drain and spin..if it does it is your choice wjether to buy new one...if it was not switch then pump is plugged up and needs to be checked...will not spin with water in tub....I have a Whirlpool top loading washing machine, it won't empty the water out or spin.?
Check the door switch. When you open the door there should be a hole under it for a safety switch. push a small nonmetallic item in it to push down the tab It might work.
Is it possible that the load is out of balance? If that's not the problem, try doing a load on a different setting, such as permanent press instead of regular wash. If it still won't spin, try turning the dial manually to the spin portion of the cycle. If you still have trouble, it sounds like you'll need a service cal.
More likely to be a blocked pump
