I have an mtd yardmachine 2001, changed the solenoid and battery. The starter works too but when I try to turn it on, it makes a buzzing sound, how can I fix that?

You mean when you turn the key you hear buzzing sound but starter is not turning motor?
Sounds like automatic decompressor valve not activating on cam and starter motor cannot/will not be able to turn crank against compression. see if you can spin the motor by hand. If not you need to replace valve decompressor gear inside motor.

Whirlpool dryer makes a buzzing sound whey start button is pushed. sometimes it will turn on for a few seconds but most of the time it just buzzes.

The buzzing is probably the relay trying to start the motor. See if the motor has a capacitor, have it checked. If the motor is all clogged with lint, the start/run switch can get blocked. Clean out all that lint with a vacuum cleaner.
Check the tub bearing, and make sure the drum spins freely.

Kenmore model 66812694 - quits running, buzzing noise at restart

bad motor,when you hear that noise open the door,hold in the door switch with one hand and with the other spin the drum and have someone else start it while you do this,all your doing is helping the motor start to spin but it sounds like a bad motor,this could be from not cleaning out the dryer,if it's gas it should be done once a year,electric can go another 6 months because there isn't an open flame in there,if you clean out the dryer and vent line the clothes will dry on time,the parts will last longer and you won't have a dryer fire.

Have AMANA dryer ALE230RAW. Hear buzz when start

I also have this problem, but it is after the dryer has been running. When the motor is hot, it buzzes and will not run. Sometimes it will run if I turn the drum or take some clothes out. I disassembled the dryer and cleaned the motor of lint. This helped but not completely solved the issue. I have completely removed the motor and will thoroughly clean the motor (stator and brushes) and will try again.

Windshield washer sprayer doesn't work

1986 Buick Somerset

Here is the diagnostic check list in order of checking;
) Is fluid in the tank ?
) Are nozzles unclogged ?
) Is the fuse for pump good ?
) Do you hear a buzzing sound from the sprayer motor when activated ? If not, you need a new motor. Replacement motor is not too expensive.

23 year old car.

GE Profile trash compactor

Sure is... The motor drives a ram up and down to compact your trash... Like most drive systems.. it needs to find a refrence position near the top of the stroke.. that position is normally sensed by a switch.. so it is possible your motor is bad or.. it is also possible your top sense switch is bad too.. For $400.. the GE tech should come out and stomp on your trash until it is compressed.... In either case.. if you are handy.. you may be able to open the compactor up ( with power unplugged) and check the position of the ram.. if it is near the top.. you may be ableto reposition it down a little then try cycling it.. It may buzz if the motor is bad ( windings shot) or it may work OK.. if it does and the problem comes back after you cycle it.. there is a good chance the top sense switch is bad or the windings in th emotor bad too.. Hope that helps...

Whirlpool lgr4634eqo makes a buzzing noise when trying to start

Try holding the door switch lever in and turning the drum hard by hand. It sounds like you have a start switch out in the motor.

Buzzing noise when pressing start button

does the buzzing noise sound more like a hum, if so could be a bad motor or possibly something stuck in blower wheel.
