GE TOP LOAD WASHER DOES NOT AGITATE OR SPIN

THE MACHINE IS NEW BUT I BOUGHT IT AT A SALVAGE DEALER IT FILLS WITH WATER FINE AND PUMPS THE WATER OUT FINE WHEN THE TIMER SWITCHES TO WASH IT WILL NOT WASH -- NOTHING HAPPENS. THE SAME IS TRUE WITH THE SPIN CYCLE NOTHING HAPPENS. THE STATUS LIGHT SHOWS IT SHOULD BE WASHING OR SPINNING BUT THE MACHINE IS SILENT AND NOTHING HAPPENS. I THINK I MIGHT HEAR SOMETHING THAT SOUNDS LIKE A RELAY TRYING TO KICK IN -- MAYBE, NOT SURE. THE MODEL IS WWSE5240G0WW

    I have the same washer and the same problem, no agitating or spinning. It fills and drains just fine. How can I jump the lid switch to see if that is the problem. I have also taken off the front panel and have checked the top of the motor for the flashing led described in the schematics but see nothing.

I have a GE MODEL WWSe5240G0WW top loader washer that has seen very little use. My problem is that the unit will not agitate or spin,every thing else seems to work ok. I did remove the top lid switch and jumped the to wires (Yellow/Red and Orange) still did not make any difference. Any in for would be great.

hi Jlove.
Washer Fills but Does Not Agitate. If your washer fills with water but doesn't agitate, the problem is likely to be a faulty lid switch, a broken belt, or a problem with the motor. (Note: Direct-drive washing machines do not have belts..

Machine will not agitate

Washer has a motor coupling between gearcase and motor. This coupling is probably broken.
