UPDATE - NFT: Kenmore 400 washing machine problem
I'm having a problem with my washer and was hoping someone here might recognize the issue and advise me as to what part needs replacing.

Check your washer host connections and make sure you are getting water

is there water sitting in the tub currently? maybe it needs to spin and discharge the water thats currently in the tub?

have you tried unplugging it for a bit and plugging it back in or flipping breakers?

or replace the capacitor / startup switch

I can make the washer fill and drain water no issues. Just can't get it to go into the wash cycle.

I've unplugged/plugged back in several times. Same with the breaker.

Tub fills and drains no issue. Just can't get the wash cycle to kick on. I'll watch the video now. Thanks!

Pretty sure bad lid switch just means it won't spin, think it should still wash.

Need to pop the front off it to see wtf is going on.

Well I had some wash to do and I have a Kenmore. So when I lift the lid it disengages the switch and stops agitating. His problem could still be the lid switch. I did see that by him messing with time it began agitating so not sure maybe the lid was closed. Those lid switches are pieces of crap 3 times I've had this with my current Kenmore. I would definently not discount running a check.

It's very possible and an easy fix. I think Kenmore is part of Whirlpool now, and they used plastic mechanical switches for many years which we replaced often. It's been a while but i thought those just wouldn't spin but maybe the newer ones are different. More recently I worked with GEs that had magnetic switches that were far less problematic, just everything else sucked about them.

Unfortunately none of them are built to last anymore.
