Try removing all of the laundry and see if it will do the spin cycle. If not, then something is out of balance with the machine.

You may have One wet heavy item (one sweatshirt or one bath towel) that is not evenly dispersed within the wash tub, and this will prevent the machine from reaching and completing the spin cycle.

SOURCE: my washer makes a terrible sound when spin drying

Unless you a very attached to this machine i suggest you buy a new washer. This has to do with either the tub main bearing or the transmission. Either one of these repairs is going to cost around $400 to $550 to repair. unless you choose to do it yourself. it is a fairly difficult repair. Hope this helps.

Clothes are still wet after last spin cylce

Most washing machines do not dry the clothes completely. Make sure that your clothes are evenly spaced & the weight is balanced to get the best spin speed. When the cycle is complete, you will need to put the clothes into a dryer or hang them up to get them completely dry.

My washing machine does not spin the clothes dry-clothes are soggy

Was your load a single item or many over full. Many washer will quit so you can rearrange the items so it can spin balanced. The machine will try 10 times to balance the load , if it can;t do it it turns off and waits for you to do it.

Our washing machine is being placed in storage, but we can still hear water in the bottom of the machine (not in the tub). Is this normal? It seems like we should get all the water out before storin

If its a front loader there is liquid inside the drum put there by the manufacturer for balance and stability when the machine is running, that's probably the water sound you hear when you move it around.

My kenmore 417 wahser making too much noise, it looks like the inner tub hitting the outer plastic housing. How can I fix it?

Have you tried moving the clothes around in the drum to balance the drum BEFORE you was them? If that works, you have solved the problem! Most people forget that when cloth gets wet it gets heavy so leaving the clothes unevenly placed in the drum dry will make a real problem when they get wet!

What will cause the washing machine to not spin fast enough to spin the clothes dry or not spin the fabric softener out of the agitator cup?

If your towels are coming out the dryest it is probably a problem with it being off balance. Did you make sure that the clothes are even placed in the washer. If you have a bunch of heavy stuff on one side and light stuff on the other side it could cause the same problem.

Since I have owned my washer I have at least one load that does not spin completely dry enough.

An occasional load that does not spin dry enough is nothing to be overly concerned about. The usual cause of this problem is due to a load that the washer was unable to balance and therefore it never entered the high speed spin cycle. There are a couple of things you can do to minimize this problem. If you are washing an item of clothing that is made of heavyweight fabric make sure you wash at least two of the same item or throw several towels in to act as a counterbalance. Also, make sure your washer is properly leveled by using a four foot level and checking from front to back and side to side. Using a level that is shorter than the length or width of the washer may not produce a true level.

Washer making noise in spin cycle

Is this unit new? I had a frigidaire that would really get to going on the spin cycle. Got the clothes really dry and sounded like a jet engine if no clothes were in it. Is it a whisling sound or screeching sound...The sound could be coming from the water pump. It may have something in it that is dragging. Some you can take the bottom off of and clean them out..
