If let in this condition long enough, the hum will stop and when you rotate the timer, nothing happens. Wait a few minutes and turn the timer again...and it will agitate but not drain. The pump is not clogged. I took everything apart and checked the inlet hose and outlet hose. I can manually move the belt and water gets pumped out. I also bypassed the lid switch. Any help would be appreciated.
