This washer has water heavy clothes after cycle is finished.
First I cleaned out the drain pump ( bobby pin was found lodged in impeller) .
Then after that ended up replacing drain pump altogether.
Still clothes are not spun out after cycle is finished.
No error codes. When unit is tested for drain/spin it works fine.
Don't know what to check for at this point.
Any ideas?

This needs to be moved to the laundry topics.

I would suspect the water inlet valve may not be closing. The water inlet valves on these Duets seem to have a high failure rate.

We have gotten tons of complains about it. The recommended fix by Whirlpool is replace the MCU if everything else checks ok.
Check These:
Drain hose not siphoning back into washer,
Inlet Valve for dripping overnight,
Shocks,
Springs,
Level Unit,
Sorting of Clothing (bad sorting = jeans with t-shirts),
Load Size (About 2/3 full max),
HE detergent only (Tide, Gain, Cheer)

It is never a bad thing to leave it to the professionals. Inexperience can lead to more damage or risk of injury. You can always call A&E Factory Service (1-800-905-9505), Sears(1-800-469-4663), or local service man you can trust (servicemagic.com).
