Default GE washer won't final spin
Brand: General Electric
Model Number: WCXR1070TAWW
Age: 5 - 10 years

I have a 9 yr old GE top load 7-cycle Heavy Duty Washer that won't final spin due to overloading. When I detected the problem, I smelled burning rubber and saw a little white smoke near washer. It will spin with one to two items, but it won't spin with a full load. Everything else works okay, except for a load knocking when agitating during the wash cycle. Can anyone help. Can't afford a repair person at this time. And I need my washer. Thanks.

MODEL #: wcxr1070taww.

If the belt is burnt it will have to be replaced.

There is not likely enough tension on the belt to make it spin with a full load.

As long as there is no other damage to the machine this will likely get you going again.

Here is a link to your washer model WCXR1070TAWW.
