Could a failing Lid Lock Latch Assembly cause the LG WT7300CW to have symptom: Wont Shift To Spin?

The lid lock serves as a critical safety interlock that authorizes the high-speed centrifugal phase. If the internal solenoid or the bi-metal heat sensor fails to confirm a locked state to the PCB, the controller will inhibit the spin sequence entirely to prevent user injury. This is the most common cause for an LG washer to complete a wash cycle but refuse to transition into spinning.

Could a failing Clutch Shifter Slider Assembly cause the LG WT7300CW to have symptom: Wont Shift To Spin?

This mechanical component is responsible for the physical 'shift' between agitation and spin modes. It utilizes a solenoid-driven slider to move a splined gear that couples the direct drive motor to the outer basket hub. If the slider teeth are stripped or the actuator fails to move the gear into the downward position, the motor will rotate but only the pulsator will move, failing to spin the tub.

Could a failing Drain Pump Motor cause the LG WT7300CW to have symptom: Wont Shift To Spin?

The wash controller requires a 'dry' signal from the pressure transducer before initiating the spin ramp-up. If the drain pump has a mechanical obstruction or an open winding, water remains in the tub, and the sensor logic prevents the shift to spin to avoid excessive mechanical stress and potential flood conditions caused by out-of-balance water weight.
