why does the washer does not drain?

I have a kenmore 80 series washer and it does not drain on the drain cycle and it does not spin, what can be wrong?

Hi,

You don't say what it actually does, if anything, so assuming the fuse has not blown there are a few things it is more likely to be (out of the myriad it could be).

If the machine will not drain then it will not do the spin, since its sensor will let it know that it hasn't drained yet. Turn the setting to pump, if no water appears but you can hear the pump, the drain tube could be blocked. If no noise then the pump or sensor could be faulty, or the electronic controller could be faulty.

I am dealing with a similar problem on a Simpson front loader. It's the controller, with electronic problems derived from a dry joint. Keeps you on your toes...
