SOURCE: the Washing Machine fills and then empties with not running a wash cycle
possible a pressure stat fault. some pressure stats have a too high water detector which turns on pump
SOURCE: fills washes rinses but wont spin properly or empty out
its likely the pump is blocked (hence the humming) with a coin or some foreign object. To check, lower the outlet hose to ground level to allow the water to empty. Tip machine back & lean against a wall, remove the pump & remove object if there is one! Reassemble & try machine again
SOURCE: My machine will fill & go thru a wash cycle but wont rinse or spin.
Check your exit hose spigot, it may be clogged. This is if your filter is all clean. There should be air for passage in the standpipe behind. Your hose should not fit airtight into the standpipe and neither too deep into it. Snaking out your standpipe would be good too.

SOURCE: Washing machine fills in the water but does not start the wash cycle
The fact that it does not fill completely can be related to a problem with the water-level switch, that regulates the water level.
See from Repairclinic:
"This switch is
usually a diaphragm device with a small, clear tube attached between
the switch and the bottom of the washer's outer tub. As the water level
in the tub increases, the pressure on the air in the tube increases.
When the pressure reaches a certain level, it activates the switch,
shuts off the water, and signals the timer to begin the agitate cycle.
If the switch is defective, it may prematurely signal the water to shut
off. If so, you probably need to replace the water-level switch."
However, when it is only the switch the mashine usually completes the cycle, but with less water than normal.
A possibilty is that either the timer is faulty or there is a problem with the water supply.
Check that water is coming from water supply with regular pressure, and that hoses back there are not obstructed.
More likely you will have to replace the timer.
See again from Repairclinic:
"When the cycle doesn't advance, it's probably the timer or a cold-water supply problem:
