If your machine will drain then the motor is operating. Take it apart and inspect the coupling close up.

Well, it is unusual to have a second break, but the coupler is the weak spot, and it is designed to be that way so the motor or transmission is not damaged.

Glad you got it fixed, thanks for the update.
