usually, an electric motor has a large capacitor connected in parallel and one of it's functions is to help start the motor spinning. try to check this capacitor and replace it with a new one if defective.

sounds like the lid switch is faulty

does the water pump out ok?

You can check the belt, pulley, and the motor

The lid switch has a green ground wire and 2 hot wires. Jump them 2 hot wires and see if she pumps out.

check the pump,could have a sock or something stuck in it.usually i would say to check the lid switch,open and close the lid,if you don't hear a clicking sound the washer won't go into spin or drain but if you're hearing a humming sound that's the motor watch this videohttp://www.youtube.com/user/RepairClinic?v=DwV71h86Gxw it will show you how to get to the pump.pop off the two clips that hold the pump on and remove the pump just pull it backwards off of the motor shaft,now get a piece of wire and strip the ends on it,2 to 3 inches long,unplug the washer before you start to work on it,get your jumper wire and stick it into the wire harness that connects to the lid switch, don't plug it into the ground plug it into the other two wires not the green wire,i'm pretty sure it's the two outside wires and the green ground is in the middle,plug the washer back in and pull the timer out in the spin cycle,if the motor runs and spins you know something is stuck in the pump or the pump is bad,but just to make sure it's not the lid switch and it is the pump put the pump back on and start the washer again if you hear the humming it's the pump or before you pull the pump jump out the lid switch and see if it spins and drains,if it doesn't then pull the pump so you don't have to stick the bad pump back on the washer,all the lid switch is for is so the washer will not run in the spin with the lid open and some washers won't even agitate if the lid is open by using the jumper wire we are bypassing the lid switch to check the washer while it's apart.hope this helps and if you can let us know how you make out so if someone else reads this with the same problem it will help them out too.

bad transmission or bad motor

replace agitator dogs or may have a bad transmission

bad transmission, agitating and spinning at the same time, replace transmission est. $175.00

have you cleared the filter

The timer is bad and needs to be replaced. if you continue to run it this way you will need to replace the motor coupling real soon. That is where the burning rubber smell coming from. Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/charles_c2f37a3461344482

See if all the connections are tight; try inter-changing the water pipes. Water should have good pressure at faucet.......

Don't gonna be the timer
If your washing machine gets stuck just before the rinse, than its gonna be the lid switch
