Almost all parts are interchangeable- Gentle Annie and Frigidaire are all the same machines- only parts different are main power board in base of machine, and display board- everything else the same. Motors are interchangeable, as long as the plug connection is the same- there are two different types of plug connection (ie male and female plugs are opposite ways around).

Make sure there is voltage going to the valve solenoids. That is what opens up and lets water into the washer. You will have to open up the top of the washer control. The valve assembly is where the hoses screw in the back. I don't have the technical on it but most likely should be 120V. Sometimes the valve goes bad and won't open up.

How to remove agiator on a clothes washer

Gentle Annie : remove the Softener unit in the center, it just pulls out , look into the center to see if there is a large Wing nut at the bottom , if there is reach down & unscrew the nut anticlockwise , then the center agitator should lift up. Some one said to use White vinagar to clean of old soap residue but I have never used it for that .

The fill switch may have failed or the tube to it broke. Anyway, the machine probably is too full of water for it to start to spin out, so it slips on the belt and that makes noise.
The machine is going to be very heavy if it is overfull, but try to let some water out. Maybe you can just lower the drain hose way down into a bucket and get some water out of it. Once it's low enough, it may be able to pump out the rest. Then you can find out about the fill switch.
If it's not overfull, then some hose came loose or broke.

Hi.I have a Gentle Annie that starts and stops filling with water

It is most likely the lid switch. The switch sits in a plastic bracket which has a lever coming down behind the tank.

If the tank sways and hits that lever, it cuts off the cycle as a safety measure. When the switch is faulty or more often when the plastic bracket breaks, you get this symptom.

Let me know if you need more assistance.

Gentle annie motor wiring

This according to googled results, and somewhat verified by me:

For the Gentle Annie connect the white/orange/green wires together to from a
star point and the three other ends (red, yellow & blue) go to your 3 phase
rectifier.
You can leave the others hanging. Don't form the star point with the wire
that's green with a yellow stripe, that's the chassis earth. The brown,
purple, and brown with black stripe I think are sensing coils, with a star
point connected to the black wire. 1.4ohm each, whereas the main coils are
4.8ohm and apparently rated for 5A.
