I think the spin cycle on my washing machine just crapped out. |

And we're leaving for our vacation tomorrow morning. :mad:
I *hate* it when shit breaks. I hesitate to tell my partner about it because she tends to get upset when irritating shit like this happens.

3. Is the load out of balance? |
|
Sometimes if there is very heavy stuff in it, the machine will quit because it isn't powerful enough to rotate the heavy items. Or if all the heavy stuff is wadded up in one quadrant, same explination.
So, open the machine and make sure the weight is evenly distributed throughout. Or take out the heavy stuff and wash it seperately.

I can hear the motor running but no spinning so I think it's a belt problem
