Most likely, the lid switch or a power problem (plug, outlet, circuit breaker).
Check the lid for a plastic or metal prong that pushes a plastic thing on the washing machine. This is the lid switch. It stops everything if the lid is lifted. If the prong on the lid is broken or missing, it needs to be replaced. If the switch doesn't make a definite 'click' when you manually press it, it is bad and needs replacement (doing this may cause the washer to start agitating, so keep your hands away from the moving parts inside).
If none of this helps, it may well be the coin mechanism and/or timer.
Good luck from Detroit, MI.
