 The only other thing right at this point is to make sure that motor harness is on correct.  Give that pressure switch test just like I said and see if it agitates.  Get a piece of hose around the same size and blow into that switch...If it agitates,  it's the switch.

could it possibly be the motor.


Could you "bench test" the motor alone to see whether it runs or not?

Like hell he does.  I know Whirlpool techs and they're all 1) technically very sharp and 2) literate.  This clown can't even punctuate correctly.  And a Whirlpool tech would never recommend by-passing a manufacturer's safety device that's there to keep his employer from getting their a$$ sued off by ninnies who stick their arm in a spinning washer basket.    

I bet that drcoon@comcast.net is a stolen email address. 

He's outta here.  :rocketman:

 Hi, Beeotch.  The problem with your washer is the lid switch.

Whip it good! :whipit:

 Way to whup up on that puppy!  Congrats on your washer repair... and showing hubby who's on top, eh hem.

Absolutely replace the thermal fuse on your dryer.  It's good you found the problem by jumpering it out, but don't run it like that for very long because it's an important safety feature to help keep your house from burning down. Ruin your whole day, dontcha know.
