I can’t remember at this point if I heard the POP sound while I filled the spinner (overstuffed, possibly?) or when I actually turned the spinner on. But it was a distinctive POP sound. I’ve replaced the spinner’s timer and the capacitor and - nothing. The drain pump starts and that’s all I get. Any other idea of what it would be?

i also have an issue with the spin timer First it stopped timing properly, as something was misaligned. Then, something popped and now there is no resistance when turning the spin handle. i disassembled the timer, and got it to start spinning the moment i turn the knob, but it’s supposed to resist (timer, countdown) and just snaps back off. If you still have your washer, and would be inclined to send a pic of the inside of your spin timer, it’d help me since i don’t know how it is supposed to look & if something is broken or the pieces are misaligned. i also have a weird want/need to keep this machine, so appreciate your help if you get this
