Whirlpool toploader hit and miss engaging during spin
Doc wrote the following:
When it gets to the spin portion, sometimes the drum doesn't spin,
though the pumps drain the tub. If I bump the selector knob off and on
it always engages it and it spins fine. Some kind of clutch mechanism
getting hitchy? How big a pain to fix/replace?
Thanks for all input
Before you tear apart the control panel, check that the lid's cut-off
switch is working properly. Maybe a loose wire or some other problem
with it.
If it's bad, it'll be the easiest and cheapest fix.
