Sounds like the controller behind he knob is shot. May be cheaper to get a new one or look for a new used one on craigslist. If you google the model number and addparts list it should bring up a link to the sears parts list. Youcan then gogle the part # for the controller module and see what it costs.
If you have a direct drive washer made by Whirlpool, your washer transmission has what is called a neutral drain built into it. It is designed to pump water out before it starts to spin. After water has drained out, the timer has a pause in it where motor shuts off for about 5 seconds. When motor comes back on, transmission is then in gear to spin. If timer never pauses, then washer never goes in gear to spin. Timer is most likely defective.
washer fills up but wont start washing i can turn the knob just passed the numbers and the little marks and it starts washing and when it gets to the rinse cycle it wont rinse but when it gets to spin cycle it spins good

I have a Kenmore 80 series mode #2289400. It will wash but will not drain and spin. I have turned the knob to a different spin cycle put it won't spin. I have drained the water out of the tub thru the drain pipe so it's not plugged. When it's ready to spin and it making no noice. Any help would be great.
my ge top load washer washes but wont spin at end of cycle to ring the clothes out. if i mess around with the switch or motor wire connections it starts to spin with some help
well, you might have to get a new washer. It sounds like the control circut is going out and the door switch is also gone. it would cost about the same as a new washer. sorry.
