I have a whirlpool cabrio Wtw8500dc0 and when you turn the power on and start the washer is just makes a humming noise and the wash plate does like a tiny spin then all you hear is more humming for a while then the washer says end and that’s all it’ll do.

SOURCE: Whirlpool cabrio washing machine doesn't spin

Try to turn the drum by hand, if it hard to turn, there may be something stuck underneath spin basket. If it does turn freely but makes a loud growling sound, you probably have a bad bearing. You should notice black oil and water mixture at bottom of washer, on the rotor. It will usually throw a f51 error code. This unit has service bulletin on this problem.
