Having a problem I can't fully figure out with my clothing washer. It cycles through all the wash cycles fine. When final spin hits, it starts off by spinning the outer basket, then switches to spinning the impeller for the high speed run. Then it allows the basket to coast to a stop. Then it repeat this action twice more. As a result, my clothes are not getting run dry enough for my dryer to effectively work. Sometimes the clothes are dripping wet. I have already replaced the main drive belt, the splutch assembly, and the run capacitor. I know I must be missing something, but I can't figure out what it is. Has anyone else fixed this problem?

Hi,

Its possibly the hub underneath the washplate, that's stripped.

Here's the hub for your model, its located underneath the washplate:
W10528947 Hub


I'd first check your hub to see if the teeth are starting to grind down.

The hub has screws that hold it in place, you will see them once you remove the washplate.

To remove your washplate, Watch this video below, wiggle the washplate while pulling it up.
