Hi @fishlake

I assuming that you mean that the wash tub tries to spin but can't and not that the washer's cycle timer can't step on to the rinse cycle from the wash cycle, as your question is a little ambiguous, is this correct?

If the cycle timer does step through the cycles OK but the machine can't spin during the rinse or spin cycle it may be a problem with the drive coupling

The supplier link above are only to show the part, they also have a video that shows how to replace the part and they have the manufacturer's part number listed as well.

If this is the problem, search online using the manufacturer's part number only to find suppliers that suit you best.
