70 Series Kenmore Washer (Model SM9710804-A)

My wife reported to me that our 70 Series Kenmore washer seemed to make it through a complete wash cycle, but the clothes were still too wet. She restarted the load from the rinse cycle. The basket filled with water but the agitator and the basket did not move. The motor hums when the switch is pulled on in many of the modes.

(I vacuumed the water out of the basket but did not try to fill it again, so I do not know if this function still works).

Is this the same problem described in the previous post?

Kenmore Elite Oasis washer does not lock

First, OL/UL stands for "Overload", so in other words, the washer things the tub is too hard to move because it's overloaded and the motor is struggling or the unit is way out of balance causing the washer to struggle. The most common problem is a nut below the inner tub that needs to "float". Floating is when the tub fills up with water to a certain level the inner basket will rise about 1 inch from the center agitator. What this does is disengage the basket from the motor so that the agitator can rotate independently from the basket. If the basket does not float then when it tries to agitate the whole basket will turn back and forth at the same speed as the agitator and this will cause the OL/UL error code.

The comforter is too big for these washers. But it sounds like you may have taken out the motor coupler. It's an easy fix. If that's not it, then the transmission broke. But it is more than likely the coupler.

Was there by chance a comforter or anything excessively bulky or heavy washed in it prior? There is a coupler under the tub that conencts the gearcase (transmission) to the tub. More than likely, this is stripped out! Is that an Estate Model? Also, Does your family make it a habit of stuffing the basket with as much as they can? You should NEVER load past the top row of holes in the basket. And load them loosely. Drop them in and where they lay i just that. Overfilling is a major cause of coupler damage, too.

No agitator action

I need to get the model of the washer. (e.g. 123.123456789). This will greatly help to identify the problem and a fix for the washer. Thanks
