Spin cycle does not engage.
Replaced clutch assembly and motor coupling.
Wash cycle works but when going into spin it sounds like it is seizing and stops.
I shut it down and unplug, turn off water then it leaks.
I have checked pump and hoses.
Could this be a pump or gearbox issue?

If it won't drain, then it may be something in the pump jamming the motor. With tub empty, set timer directly to spin. If it won't spin, you need to run the machine with cabinet removed and lid switch bypassed so you can observe the clutch hub. When in spin cycle, if the clutch hub is not spinning, pull the pump off the motor and try again. If clutch hub still won't spin, then the transmission is faulty.
