Kenmore washer 20712 series 70 will fill but nothing else

The unit will fill and stop at desired level then proceeds to do nothing, make a humming sound, emit an electrical burnt smell and power cord from wall to unit is getting hot. No spin, No drain.
where to start? I must fix asap myself if possible.

Check at the back side of the motor to see if it turns freely. If it does, your motor is bad. If not your gearcase is frozen (bad). Hope this helps!

MY KENMORE WASHER , MODEL # 20712 991 70 SERIES FILLS WITH WATER AND NEVER GOES IN THE AGITATE MODE , IT JUST CONTINUES TO FILL(it would run over if allowed), WHEN YOU MANUALLY MOVE THE TIMER TO THE SPIN...

The water level sensor hose may have come off. This would require some dis-assembly to repair. Get the correct model number please to get a diagram.

Hello, Have a Kenmore series 70 (capcity plus).

Note after reading a bunch of information. I went home and removed the hose from the Level Switch and "clean it", if you will and re-attached. Started a load, and bingo bango bongo, it work. Thanks for the insight.

My kenmore washer 70 series model 20712 990 will not agitate or spin. it drains, but won't agitate or spin. what is the problem?

This model has a safety switch in the door switch. This switch goes bad and the machine will not spin or agitate. Have that replaced and you will be back in business. Hope this helped you out. Good luck.

filling and never stops and never agitates? then check level switch and hose, any hole in the clear hose to the level sw can cause this. if airtight then replace level sw.
