A squirrel chewed completely through the neutral wire of the electric entry cable to my house, causing several problems, one of them being my washer will fill/drain but not spin/agitate. It sounds like the motor is running and I can turn the drum by hand.

Took the front off. Motor is not running. I think it is water pump that I hear. No flashing light either. Will check fuse later today.

Fuse is bad. Can I jump a wire around fuse just to test condition of motor?
