There are a few things that can go wrong, If the washer doesn't adgitate or spin then probably the coupler is broken, lean the washer back and look under the machine between the motor and transmission you will find the coupler. (very common)

If its agitating but not spinning, check the lid switch, (easy check just listen for the click when you shut the lid, Or you can bypass it with a jumper wire under the console there are only 2 screw that hold the console down they are philips and either located in the front lower corners or the back lower corners)

If lid switch is good and the motor still doesnt run you might have a bad timer (RARE)

If you can hear the motor running but its not spinning and you have rulled out the coupler then your probably looking at a clutch (common problem) either the clutch isnt grabbing or the brake isnt releasing both problems solved with the clutch kit

Worst case your looking at a transmission, (uncommon) to rule out, make sure its agitating, then put washer in spin cycle. look under the washer to see if the clutch bell is spinning. if its not then you will need a transmission.

if its making loud noises when it stops spinnig then the block is bad.

SOURCE: I have a top load Roper washer that won't spin.Any ideas?

That sounds like a bad drum bearing, check and eventually replace the drum bearing.

SOURCE: washer makes loud buzzing noise during rinse cycle

HI, your timer mechanism is faulty. replace this faulty timer asap if possible. this will fix your issue.

SOURCE: only spin cycle

Check the lid switch, it only locks out the spin cycle.
