My neighbor said something about wig-wag solenoid but I didn't see anything under there that looks like how he described? Is it the coupler? How do I check that? What are the other possibilities? Thanks in advance....C

Your problem is most likely the coupling that connects the motor to the transmission. To access the motor try this page Whirlpool Washer Disassembly Guide If it is the coupling once see it, it will be obvious if it is the problem or not because it will be broken or stripped out.
