All of a sudden it started to click which sounds almost like its turning on and off very fast. This happens during agitate cycle for the most part. At the same time it clicks, the lights in the house dim. Any ideas?

This happens when one of the windings in the motor opens up the motor will start then cut right back off then when the start switch goes back the motor can start again. If you change the cycle to make the motor run on a different speed it may work (depending on which winding is open) Clothes Washer Repair Guide
