Good Morning chrisboudreau – The unit could have possibly displayed an error code E21. Typically, it indicates a drainage issue which will not allow the washer to drain or spin. First, check the drain hose for any restrictions or kinks. If you have check the hose and it appears to be clear and free, then potentially the underlying issue may be the main control board or pump. Generally it is a good idea to have a professional take a look at it to get to the root cause. Cost of parts and technical expertise entailed in these types of replacements can be a bit tricky.
