Washer will not spin
Washers & Dryers
Kenmore laundry is usually a pair that shares a room and not a control. Washers fail on water and spin. Dryers fail on air and heat. Ownership is platform — top-load, front-load, gas, electric — plus how the pair is stacked.

About this appliance
Appliance overview
A Kenmore washer that will not spin is not a dryer problem. A Kenmore dryer that will not heat is not a washer problem. Photograph both plates if you are unsure which machine to book. Washer repair on this site is the service for the pair. This page is the category view.
Front-load versus top-load, pedestal, stack, and whether the dryer is gas all change access and safety rules. Coffee-machine error-code URLs on this site are unrelated to laundry.
Single heavy items and machines that are not level explain many “broken transmission” fears. Lint screens and crushed hoses explain long dry times. Gas dryers add a fuel-odor rule that is not optional.
