Clothes Are Wet After Spin Cycle


If your clothes remain wet after your washer’s spin cycle, perform the following diagnostics:

1) Lift the lid during the spin cycle. If the tub is not spinning, you may have a damaged motor coupler. Call a repairperson to replace this part.

2) If the tub is spinning, recheck the load to make sure it is balanced. If you are certain the load is balanced but your clothes are still wet, you may need to call a repairperson to replace a damaged motor pulley, tub bearing, belt, or clutch.

3) You can also follow the troubleshooting steps outlined in “Washing Machine Doesn’t Drain.” You may have a problem with your drain hose or pump.
