Is the washer still agitating?

If you look at this thread:

And go to the 2nd post. You will see a part called the coupling.

The first thing to do would be to fill the washer and lift the lid after it's done filling. There should be a place where the lid has a pin that pushes down on something. That is a lid switch and you might have to push it down with a pen to get the washer going.
Some models go through the agitation without the lid switch but others don't.

If you have any questions let us know.
