What can I do to fix this? I took apart the timer to make sure that it was working properly. I can't diagnose but can usually fix things when I know what the problem is. HELP !!!!!

Just humming? All quiet? If running, is belt turning? Or clip on bottom of motor shaft spinning but pulley not rotating? Eric

The washer should fill, agitate, drain, spin (wash cycle), fill, agitate, drain, spin (rinse cycle). Does the basket with the clothes in it ever spin?

Unplug one of the wire terminals from the pump so it won't make any noise. Turn washer back on. What does the drive motor do? Do you see the clip on the bottom of the shaft below the pulley spinning? If not, is the motor humming at this point?
