Washer wont spin on normal or heavy loads but it will spin on knit loads? It spins counter clockwise on knit loads but doesnt spin clockwise on normal or heavy loads.

Sure sounds like your timer has bit the dust. I'm not sure if the timer is still available. You have a great washer there. Good luck.

sounds like the transmission needs replaced

1. Turn the washer off.
2. Set the mode selector dial to NORMAL.
3. Turn the dial counter clockwise ONE click (LEFT), clockwise THREE clicks (RIGHT), counter clockwise ONE click (LEFT) then clockwise ONE click (RIGHT).
4. Now press the start button.
5. All the cycle indicating lights should be illuminated.
6. Press the Start Stop button once.
7. Rotate the dial until Rinse, Wash, and Stop light illuminate.
8. Turn the washer off and unplug it for 10 seconds.
9. Finally, turn on the washer and it should now be reset.
10. Run a test load empty to be sure the reset worked. If not perform the reset procedure one more time.

Your washer has a lid switch. If the switch is broken the washer will not spin. The pump is mounted on the motor.
In the wash cycle the pumps turns counterclockwise. In the spin cycle the pump turns clockwise, forcing the water out of the machine. So if that lidswitch is dead then she won't pump OR spin. This video shows how to get into your machine and the next one shows how to replace the lid switch

Tip machine back and remove the bottom panel, 3 screws. You will then see a large tube at the front, unscrew in a counter clockwise direction, and remove. Clean pin trap lubricate o ring and replace back into recepticle

If your agitator is a 2 piece, it has a rachet action and turns free counter clockwise and locks to the bottom piece when turning counter clockwise.
The transmission disengages the agitator when it is in the spin mode. If you put the washer in the spin cycle the agitator should free up.
If the washer is spining ok and the agitator is not turning free you have a transmission problem.

fault may be tacho on motor fallen off or round magnet that turns inside the tacho coil has become unscrewed. remove motor and check tacho. it is located at opposite end to the belt pulley

My Frigidaire front loader washer model LTF2140E doesnt want to drain the water when set to wash (heavy-normal-quick selectors). It washes put thats it. I have to switch the selector to drain/spin then rinse/spin cycle to finish the load. I checked the drain hose for any clogs....everything is clear. Any suggestions? Also,iIs their any reset buttons for this type of washer?

did you happen to solve the problem? I am having the same exact issue with mine...washes fine, but won't do the spin cycle. it spins counter clockwise really slow at first, presumably to balance the clothes, and then starts to spin up clockwise (to do the spin cycle) but then whinnies and then stops....!
