I have a top-loading GE clothes washer machine (Model: GTWN3000MOWS) that is having trouble spinning. The machine agitates and drains fine, but when it comes to the spin cycle, the machine can only spin if the load is really light. I've checked the belt, which seems appropriately tight, and there's no indication of it slipping. I suspect a broken bearing, but replacing it seems involved. Sometimes, turning the tub by hand and pulling out the spin setting dial multiple times helps initiate a spin, but it starts very slow and is louder with a metal-on-metal grinding sound. What are your impressions given what you know so far?
