    Sears Kenmore washer just quit
    I have a sears kenmore washer that all of a sudden just stopped workinmg after it filled with water. It did not start to agitate, just quit. It is about 5 years old at worst. Could it be an overload switch? Or does this machine even have such a thing. I was able to take out the timer but not sure of it is even that item that is bad? Can you help me out with this?
    Please..

    Thanks a lot
    Sincerely ,
    Jeff Baker

    Make sure the red wire hasn't pulled out of the motor gangplug. Then I'd try replacing the motor capacitor. They are only a few bucks. Does it work in the spin and pump the water out?
