Barton, after scrambling trying to find an appliance guy, no one would come out. I watched your two minute video and I'll be damned but I had the same exact problem. My 18 Year old son's sock! Easy Peezy! So thanks for the video.

I had the same problem, agitating / washing but not spinning and not draining. After watching this video, I looked at my pump and found the impellor was not spinning freely and the induction block was super hot. Took the pump assembly off the drum, then opened the housing and pulled out the impeller assembly. There was a bunch of gritty stuff preventing the impeller from turning. Rinsed it out in water until it spun freely and put it all back together. Now it is working! Thanks for the help!

My machine refused to drain. I removed the hose and the pump. Notice some grit under the washer gave it a good rinse, as well as the hose, and now it's working just fine. Gotta love KZbin. Thanks for your help

I truly appreciate this video because I was able to figure it out tonight. We had found the rest of the belt that goes under the tumbler lid as it had snapped a couple months back. Finally replaced the top with a new cover which also included the rubber seal and vuala !! Washer machine is fixed.

If you’ll the front panel off, I found a helpful diagnostic chart in a pouch. You can find error codes and operate the pumps and agitator to test them as well as other things. Mine was full of water so I used this chart to drain the tub. Of course a sock in the drain is a whole different issue

My model is GTW500ASN0WS, serial LR999206G, and I’m probably looking at electrical damage underneath from a basement flooded and got a foot tall of water that affected the bottom part of the washer. I’m trying to figure out would need to be replaced? I opened and closed the lids six times I unplugged the machine for a minute, I press the buttons for the wash cycle it makes a noise, but then it does not show the fill button light, gyrates for a second, and does not jet water out and then makes the finish button noise three minutes later
