check to make sure the belt hasn't come off. if it's direct drive make sure the shaft is working and moving freely. if all of these check out the motor that turns everything my be stuck, frozen up or just bad all together.

sounds like it needs a new belt

With old washers and with new washers sometimes you have to get in there and tighten the belt or replace the belt. Your problem sounds like this to me.Your question was posted sometime ago and you probably found your problem. If not please get back to me and I will be happy to help some more. GOOD LUCK.

if its a top load which i believe a series 80 is,then you need to replace the lid switch to make it operate again,its located under the control panel,some can be replaced from the top,but some need to have the outer case removed to replace this switch

replacing a lid switch

your motor turns one way for the spin cycle and the other way for agitate. remove the coupler and test it that way.

You have a broken coupling that links the motor and transmission. Call around your area for estimates. It is a pretty straight forward job so most technicians should be able to give you an estimate over the phone. Most likely between $150.00 and $200.00.

pull the motor check the operation of the motor while it is on the floor: this motor reverses to spin; usual problems are; loose conection of motor plug (not snapped in) clutch springs and, piviot points blocked by other parts; clutch brake pads installed wrong or; mis-adjusted; slipping

The lid switch is failed.
