Machine was making noise and eventually would not spin on delicate cycle. It would spin on regular cycle (no noise). I changed out the clutch assembly.
Tested it on delicate cycle, yes it spun (and no noise). I opened the lid while spinning and it stopped spinning, but since then the machine will not run.
It will fill with water, I can hear the controls/timer changing, but will not agitate or pump or spin -- just makes a sound which may be the motor trying to turn. It I don't turn it off when it's making this noise, it will eventually smell of hot electric.
I've tried putting it through various setting on the wash cycles (ie, the 2 min timeout after agitating), hoping it will reset, to no avail. It seems like the brake is set and will not release.
Any suggestions on how to proceed would be much appreciated.
