Crosley Washer won't spin

When your Crosley washer won't spin, the problem is usually related to the suspension system, lid switch, or drive components. On a top-load washer, broken or dislodged suspension rods can leave the tub unbalanced, causing the control board to stop the spin cycle. A failed lid switch assembly can also prevent spinning, even when the washer fills and agitates normally. Next, inspect the motor coupling for breaks caused by overloading or normal wear, then check whether the drive belt is loose or broken. Make sure the lid or door closes completely and that the door strike is not damaged. If these parts are in good condition, a faulty control board may not be sending power to the drive motor during the spin cycle. These checks apply whether your washer is not spinning, your washing machine is not spinning, or your washer has no spin at the end of a cycle. Enter your model number to find the exact suspension rods, lid switch assembly, motor coupling, drive belt, door strike, or control board for your specific Crosley washing machine.

01 - Crosley Washing Machine Suspension Rod

A top-load washer tub is usually supported by four suspension rods. If one of the suspension rods becomes dislodged or breaks, the control board may stop the spin cycle several times to try to balance the clothes. Suspension rods will often come in a set of four and it is recommended to replace all four of the rods at the same time to reduce uneven wear.

02 - Crosley Washing Machine Lid Switch Assembly

The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not spin. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test the lid switch for continuity. If the lid switch does not have continuity, replace it.

03 - Crosley Washing Machine Motor Coupling

The motor coupling connects the motor to the washing machine transmission. If the washer is overloaded, the motor coupling will fail in order to protect both the motor and transmission. The motor coupling can also fail due to normal wear. Inspect the motor coupling to determine if it is broken. If the motor coupling is broken, replace it.

04 - Crosley Washing Machine Drive Belt

05 - Door is not fully closed

Make sure the door is closed completely and remove any obstructions preventing the door from closing. Confirm the door strike on the door is not broken. If it is broken, you will need to replace the door strike.

06 - Crosley Washing Machine Control Board

Since a washing machine control board provides voltage to nearly all of the washer's electrical components, a faulty board may not be sending power to the drive motor during the spin cycle. You can inspect the board for signs of burning or a shorted-out component. You can also use a multimeter to test the power output terminals on the board after reviewing the appliance's wiring diagram.
