Machine buzzes with no action

There are a few things that could be causing your washer to fill only and not agitate or spin. The most likely culprit is the timer knob. If the timer knob is frozen and buzzing, it's probably not making good contact with the switch underneath it. Replacing the timer knob should fix the problem.
Another possibility is that the washing machine motor is damaged. If there's a burning smell coming from the washing machine, this is probably what's causing it. You'll need to replace the motor if this is the case.
Finally, it's possible that there's something wrong with the washing machine pump. If the pump isn't working properly, it can cause the washer to fill only and not agitate or spin. You'll need to replace the pump if this is the case.

Sounds like brake is partially engaged. There is s kit that may fix that. Part # 12002213.

The burning smell is coming from motor. Also your clutch is bad where you are hearing the rattle/grinding.

sounds like you may have burned out the lid switch. if it is not working the timer thinks the lid is not closed and will not advance.

the smell is your clutch and the lack of draining is a clogged washer drain protector. see these at www.repairclinic.com drain protector is part 541811 and clutch is 2670. go there enter model number and scroll down to the red 100 click it and look for these part numbers.

Well i think you should be looking in the filter? Or in the pump. These are the only thiongs that will stop it from draining or spinning! The machine will not spin if it has water in it. It will go into spin inhibit to protect the machine. Check for lost items and then look at pump/filter if nothing then replace the pump then you will be ok.
