Roper washer will fill but does not spin/drain

There are a few potential causes for your Roper washer not spinning or draining:

1. Drive belt: If the drive belt is broken or slipping, it could prevent the tub from spinning. Check the belt for any signs of damage or wear, and make sure it is properly tensioned.
2. Lid switch: Even though you said the lid switch is ok, it's still worth checking it again as it is responsible for ensuring that the washer will not spin or drain unless the lid is closed.
3. Motor coupler: The motor coupler connects the motor to the transmission and can wear out over time. If it has failed, the washer won't spin or agitate. Check the coupler for any signs of wear or damage.
4. Drain pump: A clogged drain pump or pump motor failure can prevent the washer from draining. Check the pump and clean out any debris that may be blocking it.
5. Control board: The control board could also be a potential culprit, especially if the washer is not completing cycles correctly. Check the board for any signs of damage or malfunction.
6. Transmission: If none of the above solutions work, there may be an issue with the transmission. This will require a professional repair.

I hope this helps you diagnose and fix the issue with your Roper washer.

Question edited for typos.

Sounds as if the switch was wired wrong.

I suspect the V belt is worn out try taking the side cover off you would have to tilt the machine another helper maybe needed make sure you drain the remaining water out and unplugged the cord safety first

it's the defintly the lid switch .

It sounds like you may have a broken motor coupling. This is a common problem that usually occurs through normal wear and tear. Replacement couplers are more resilient and resist breaking much better. If the washer will fill, will not agitate or spin, but will still drain, these are the symptoms of a broken motor coupling. The accompanying noise of the motor engaging and a rattling/grinding sound is also a common symptom. This is a very simple and inexpensive repair. The following link explains step-by-step how to replace one:

the transmission

posibble bad timer. if it is skipping over the agitate.

if the drive coupling is ok then the transmission is the problem verify for sure that the coupling is good

This is a direct drive washer so there is no belt. The drive coupler that connects the motor to the tub may need to be replaced.

might be as simple as a new lid switch
