Kenmore washing machine leaving clothes wet (110.26002011)
Anyone have any ideas. The washer leaves the clothes wet after the cycle completes. If I run an additional drain/spin cycle the clothes are as they should be (damp) after the additional drain/spin cycle. I checked for clogs in the drain pipe and also the pump and found nothing. The drive belt appears fine also. Have not checked for debris between the basket and the tub as the manual suggests as I was not sure how to do this. Any other ideas on what could be causing this? It has been extremely cold this winter and I was wondering if this could be an issue further down in the drain to the septic system. Although all other things in the house seem to be draining fine but perhaps the washer uses more water than everything else. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Sounds like it's not running the spin cycle after it drains. Might be a timer malfunction. You will have to keep a eye on an entire cycle. Check it after its washed, drained... does it spin or not? Might be skipping it and just sitting there idle instead of spinning.

Model # not complete will look like this XXX XXXXXXX usually found under lid in back. First 3 numbers are needed.

Thanks Pete I got lazy. You will have to pull codes. Even getting to the tech sheet is a tough. here is a step by step to get to it. After you get it is easy to get codes but hard to read. There is a paragraph to read that tell codes pretty good.

so I entered diagnostic mode and I appear to be getting an F0E2 error and the second one is F7E1. The website said the machine will record the last 4 error codes but I only get the last 2 unless F0E0 is a code which I could not find in the list. FoE2 says excessive suds and F7E1 says basket speed sensor. The basket appears to spin freely

Run the washer in rinse a couple of times. This washer must use HE soap. See if that will clear the suds out. This may fix your problem. Let us know how it comes out. Working from a couple of years old memory so may be out of date.

Hey guys just wanted to update you all. First of all thank you for all the replies. I ended up changing the washer shifter assembly and that was indeed the problem. So for $62.00 for the part I now have a like new washing machine. You guys are always a huge help. Thank you again.
