Sir-
I am not one of the experts on this forum, but I just finished a repair on a similar machine to yours. Whirlpool has this odd feature (IMHO) called a "broken belt switch" that is in series with the run circuit. It will not allow operation with a broken belt (except likely the timer) Mine is coin up so might be a little different. You can remove the kick panel and reach over the inlet plenum, feel around and probably find the broken belt. Oh and unplug first of course! If the belt is good, probably the switch is bad.
Good Luck to you,
Steve
