Maytag washer, model LAT2300AAE... spin cycle has been degrading (didn't stop working altogether until last night). Got it to spin by moving the dial one click past the start of the spin cycle, worked for a day, now won't spin at all using regular cycle. Started using perm press cycle, after a while the same symptom, now won't drain/spin on any cycle (regular, perm press, delicate). Also, just last night it seems the cold water valve didn't open. Are all these symptoms indicative of the timer module? It's not the lid switch as the washer does agitate.

Sounds like the timer. Timer contacts will close for the water temp switch and cold water solenoid. Hot water solenoid is controlled by the water temp switch. I first would check if the motor is drawing current or receiving voltage while on the spin cycle. The tub does run on a transmission which can sometimes cause problems with the spin cycle.

Clothes won't spin dry? Look on youtube, tons of videos. The basket hub fixed mine, cheap but hard to replace if you have a seized hub bolt like I did. The shift actuator could be bad too, but I bet the plastic hub teeth are stripped, this may not be your exact part but you'll see the part and can shop from there- Amazon.com: W10528947 Washer Basket Driven Hub Kit by Sikawai Compatible with Whirlpool Ken-more Crosley Washing Machine Hub Replaces W10396887 AP5665171 PS6012095 W10528947VP : Appliances
