you have a worn motor coupler
you can order a new one at sears
and its a ver y easy repair

If it agitates fine , with normal noise , drains with lid closed , then the problem is probably the transmission .

IN BETWEEN THE MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION THERE IS A MOTOR COUPLING PART # 285753A REPLACE THAT WILL FIX YOUR PROBLEM

REMOVE 3 SCREWS FROM BOOTOM PANEL CLEANE OUT PUMP RESOLVES YOUR PROBLEM , GRINDING NOISE SOMETHIG STUCK IN PUMP WONT DRAIN,,,,

it could be the direct drive coupling that connects the motor to the transmission. fill it up with water and see if it will agitate, if it will NOT agitate then it is a good chance that this is the problem.


worse case scenario is the transmission is bad, but this is unlikely.

sounds like you have a broken drive coupling....will the unit agitate ok??

Sounds like your motor coupler. use this link for instructions to check.http://www.acmehowto.com/howto/appliance/washer/check/coupler.php

thanks for posting problem solve :0)

If your washer fills, agitates, drains, but will not spin, the likely cause is the gear case (transmission). A new gear case can run about $200 just for the part. With labor, this could be a bit expensive to repair. I hope this helps you some.
