What I'm trying to say is any money spent on trying to fix this machine might be better used to buy a working used washer or a new one. https://www.appliancepar...n-3360629-ap3096209.htmlThe shaft assembly is $114 and the transmission around $300. Replacing one of these parts will probably fix your machine. But all the rest of the washer is the same age. The timer or motor could go next... Something to think about. I don't get paid to do this. I don't get anything if this site sells parts. I'm just volunteering my time and what little knowledge I've picked up in the last 33 years.

Just a guess but the timer may have some contact points sticking together (if it is an older design timer ) and there is not much chance of repair. A new timer is likely to be needed.
