Checking the lid switch When I set the timer to agitate or spin and close the lid I get a low buzzing sound almost like a 60 cycle hum. No burned electric odor detected. Checking drive coupler and motor I bailed out the tub and turned the washer on its front. The coupler is intact and the motor and gear box spin freely when turned by hand.. The motor does not operate when energized. Again no burned electric odor detected from the motor nor any obvious signs of excessive heat. I trust that this is enough information Thanks to all in advance
