If both the hot and cold water valves are working as you say then the only thing I can imagine that would be cauing the problem you describe is the water level pressure sensor sticking after the initial fill. After the initial fill the pressure sensor sticks so even though it's empty after it drains on the next cycle the sensor is telling the control the washer still has water in it so it's going on with the cycle as if it still has a tub full of water which is why it don't refill and also why it wont' spin. The control will not allow the washer to spin if the sensor is telling the control the tub still has water in it. So replace the pressure sensor. The sensor you need for that model is linked below.
