Restarted washer and got code again. Checked drain again, it was clean. This time turned off and back on and ran the Rinse-Spin cycle. Finished but clothes might have been slightly more wet than usual. We put in next load and after pressing Start the door locked but cycle wouldn't start. Just a humming noise. Tub didn't spin to weigh load and no water sounds. Tub spins freely by hand. Is this the rotor/stator? Do both have to be replaced? Something else? Thanks!
