I have a full load in my washer & it won't do anything. I hear a buzz for a few seconds, a click, then nothing. I moved it to the spin cycle to drain water & again it buzzes, clicks, then nothing. Please help!

There are two possibilities: The water level switch and the timer. Check the water level switch by disconnecting the hose (get water out first) going to the switch. Leave the hose attached at switch end and blow on it as you have an ohm meter attached to the common and normally open terminal. The switch should close when you blow on the hose and open when you release the pressure. If it does not do so then you have found the problem. Power leaves this switch and goes to the timer.
