Tub will not spin
Our Samsung WM motor spins, however the tub does not. There is no belt, and the door is locked. I checked the drain filter and found pieces of black plastic. Is this a door lock switch issue or what?

Cause 1
Lid Switch Assembly
The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not spin. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test the lid switch for continuity. If the lid switch does not have continuity, replace it.
Cause 2
Motor Coupling
The motor coupling connects the motor to the washing machine transmission. If the washer is overloaded, the motor coupling will fail in order to protect both the motor and transmission. The motor coupling can also fail due to normal wear. Inspect the motor coupling to determine if it is broken. If the motor coupling is broken, replace it.

@dweeks “There is no belt “ is absolutely correct. Your washer uses a direct drive inverter motor that mounts to the drum. Time to take a look at the motor assembly and see if there are any issues with it.
.
If this would be a door lock issues etc. I would expect your washer to actually show you an error code.

Will it go through all other cycles if the door switch is faulty?
