Sounds like something slipping or an actuator to the transmission not functioning fully if it cannot take a load. Not all machines use belts but rather direct transmission via gearing etc.
Something may be worn in the transmission.

You are overloading if that is all that it happens .....less clothes more water and set the cycle for delicates...... unless the clothes are coming out stuck around the agitator than thats a different prob....

Follow these steps to replace your door
seal:
Disconnect all power to the machine first!!
1 Locate the
outer clamp band securing the seal to the door rim on the washing machine and
examine it carefully for holes or tears. Many can be prised off with a
flat-bladed screwdriver they have a spring system holding them, but some have a
tensioning arrangement that has to be loosened.
2 After
removing the outer
clamp band, locate the inner one securing the seal to the drum and
establish how this is secured. It may be necessary to loosen a clip, or you may
be able to prise the band off with a flat-bladed screwdriver. Some are like
very large Jubilee clips that you have to undo usually from the top.
3 Once the
clamp bands have been removed, use both hands to pull the seal away from the
inner drum rim. Some machines have a water spout holes that will have to be lined
up. Others have a drain holes.
4 Rubbing a
drop of washing up liquid into the groove on the door
seal/gasket that locates on the drum makes fitting the new seal easier.
5 the new washing
machine door seal should be fitted by locating the drain holes at the bottom
of the seal first then push it on with both hands working opposite directions
towards the top. This is quite hard if you have never done it before.
6 refit the
inner band remembering this must be tensioned correctly for it to be water
tight.
7 now fit the
outer band and the test the machine for any leaks,

Hi
If your washer has
developed a bad habit of snagging and/or tearing your clothes; before scrapping
your washer, try these few tips:
1) Check, by hand, the
smoothness of your washer. Look for any broken fins or roughness on the basket
surface. Replace, if necessary.
2) Reduce the size of your
loads. Heavy, cramped loads can cause a lot of friction which leads to tears.
3) Reduce the amount of
bleach used. Bleach can eat holes in clothing.
4) Verify water level is
not too low, especially during rinse cycle, where snags are more apt to occur.
5) Consider placing
delicates in a garment wash bag
6) Front load washers have
no center agitator, so they are less likely to tear clothes.
Please get back to us if
you have further query or else please accept the solution.
