Electrolux Washer clothes still wet at the end of cycle

When your Electrolux washer leaves clothes soaking wet at the end of the cycle, the washer may not be spinning fast enough to remove water. A worn clutch is the most likely cause, especially in a top-load washer, because it spins the inner tub. Next, inspect the drive belt for damage, looseness, or signs that it has slipped off the pulleys. A worn clutch band kit can cause the same washer not spinning out water problem when applicable to your model. If those parts are in good condition, check the basket drive for stripped spin tube tabs, a damaged drive block, or worn clutch pads. The hub can also have stripped teeth and fail to engage the inner tub. Finally, a defective motor control board may not send power to the motor, preventing proper spin operation. These failures can result in a washer with clothes still wet, a washing machine with clothes still wet, or clothes wet at the end of the cycle. Enter your Electrolux washer model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific machine.

Common

04 - Electrolux Washing Machine Basket Drive

The basket drive sits on top of the transmission and engages with the inner tub. If the transmission is engaging to spin, and the outer tub spins slowly or does not spin at all, the spin tube tabs may be stripped. Alternatively, the drive block on the spin tube may be stripped. Inspect both the spin tube tabs and the drive block. If the spin tube tabs and drive block are not worn out, the clutch pads on the basket drive are likely worn out. If the clutch pads are worn out, you must replace the basket drive.
Common

05 - Electrolux Washing Machine Hub

The hub is seated on top of the transmission and engages with the inner tub. If the transmission is engaged to spin, and the outer tub spins slowly or does not spin at all, the hub teeth may be stripped. Inspect the hub for damage or wear and replace if necessary.
Common

06 - Electrolux Washing Machine Motor Control Board

The motor control board provides power to the motor. If the motor control board is defective, the washer may not function properly or may not work at all. First, check the control board for burned out components. To determine if the motor control board is defective, ensure that the control board is providing power to the motor. If the control board has power, but is not providing power to the motor, replace it.
