Kenmore washer won't agitate,drain or spin.

Washer was washing a load and started to make a noise and a few mins later it quite agitating. I tried to get it to pump out the water and it wouldn't do that either nor will it spin. when I turn it on it sounds as though the motor is humming. I can turn the part of the agitater that sticks above the water, freely in a clockwise direction but not counterclockwise and the part of the agitater in the bottom of the drum won't move in either direction by hand.

    also I just found a small pencil shaped (3/4" long) white plastic part with a piece broken off it, that looks like it came from where the tansmission attaches to the motor. there is also what seems to be a pile of black belt dust under the washer on the floor. I was under the impression that there is no belt and it is gear driven? the washer is appx 9 yrs old: is it worth fixing?

    Thanks for your help.

Kenmore Washing Machine won't agitate, spin, or drain

It sounds like the motor needs to be replaced, you can drain the water by taking the drain hose from the drain and lowering down water will drain.

Washer agitates, drains OK, but spin doesn't start

Timer is defective. Your unit has a netural drain. When finished agitating, the shuts down and then starts up reversing to drain and spin. On the initial reverse start, the water drains without the transmission spinning. After a timed period 3-4 minutes, the timer is supposed to pause, stopping the motor for a few seconds. When the motor stops again, the transmission shift to the spin cycle and when the timer resumes power tothe motor it should spin. You are doing the same thing when you lift the lid...stopping the timer and then the tranny shifts and when you set the lid down, the washer spins. Replace the timer.......
