Nfw7300ww02 Amana Front Load Washer Will Not Spin Fast.
NFW7300WW02 front load washer will not spin fast enough to remove the water with a normal size load of laundry. I have cleaned the coin trap and drum to pump boot. Pump, pumps water out. With a small load it will hit a high speed for spinning out the water. What would be causing this?

1) Delicate or handwash cycle selected
2) Extra Low, Low or No Spin option selected
3) Washing one bulky item
4) Excessive suds
5) Drain hose kinked or drain clogged
6) Drain hose more than 96" above the floor
7) Outlet voltage low
DID YOU SELECT THE DELICATE OR HANDWASH CYCLE?
Spin speeds can vary by the cycle that is selected. Your washer is designed so that in certain cycles, such as delicate or handwash cycles, the spin speeds are slower. In these cycles, more water is retained in the load at the end of the cycle to keep delicate fabrics from shrinking and wrinkling. Select the appropriate cycle based on the fabric being washed.
WAS AN EXTRA LOW, LOW, OR NO SPIN OPTION SELECTED?
Select the highest spin speed for the fabric being washed. If extra low spin or no spin was selected, the washer may not remove enough water from the load
