re: UPDATE: Kenmore W/M won't drain-(drain hose not clogged)

Does it run through the rinse and drain cycle and the water just stays in there? Or does it stop and not finish the cycle?

Finishes the cycle/program.
Timer runs through the rest of the cycle/program. In the WASH cycle: agitator runs, then nothing through the drain and spin cycle--water sits there. Cycle progresses into RINSE cycle: nothing happens for a bit (normally water would be filling basket) agitator spins for a bit, then nothing again (drain and spin cycle), eventually program ends and timer stops.
Water still in the basket.

During the drain cycle, does the basket have to spin? I don't know because the lid was closed when the washer was operating properly. I imagine requiring the basket to spin during the drain cycle would be a strain on the clutch/transmission to have to spin a load full of clothes and water.

Edited to correct misstated cycles of wash--corrected cycle is in CAPS
