    Default [FIXED] LHW0050PQ Washer won't Spin

    While running the "whites" and "color" cycles today, my LHW0050PQ front load washer makes it to the spin part of the cycle, but just stalls and doesn't spin. The spin indicator light stays on, but the washer doesn't seem to do anything or move past this part of the cycle. If I stop the cycle then select the "spin" setting, it will turn the pump on then spin the clothes. Any ideas what could be the problem? Thanks.

    Hi,

    There should be another number after the "Q" at the end of your model#. Like 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.

    Sounds like possibly a bad control board.

    Try to unplug your washer for 5 minutes then plug it in and run a load and see if it still does it.

    Thanks Jake. I'll try unplugging it and see what happens.

    There is a number after it Q and it's a "2".

    Thanks,

    Lets hope unplugging it fixes it, because the control board on your model is extremely high.

    Here's the control board for your model:
    Manufacturer's Number: 8182643
