GE Washer WJSR20706 Agitates, drains but no spin

Washer left clothes soaking wet. Ran a few cycles. Confirmed that it agitates, drains completely but no spin.

Lid switch ok because agitation interrepts/resumes when opening and closing lid. (Top load machine)

Removed and cleaned the pressure switch tube. No blockage found. Cleaned inside nipple on plastic housing on side of tub where tube attaches. No blockage there either.

With front cover removed, confirmed belt is engaged and seated properly on both pulleys. During the spin cycle the pump drains tub completely and stays running but the motor doesnt spin at all.

With machine disconnected am able to spin motor clockwise by hand and confirm the tub indeed turns counter clockwise when viewed from top.

Removed belt and ran a cycle. Motor spun counterclockwise during what i assumed to be an agitation sequence but was completely lifeless during the spin cycle.

Removec knob from timer switch and confirmed the round dial plate behind it was properly seated.


Any ideas?
