Maytag model LSG7806AAE, stacked washer/dryer (gas) (4 years old):
Lower washing machine will not initiate cycle. Dryer works fine. There is no response (no clicking noise, either) when wash function is commanded in any/all rotary dial positions. However, dial can be rotated to the "spin" function, and washer enters spin cycle.
It seems as though washer will not function on any cycle that depends on either filling the tub with water or sensing water already in the tub.
Any help here?
Thanks.

This is very odd, and probably isn't going to be any help,,,, but i know that most top loading washers have motors that spin in 2 directions. 1 direction engages the transmission/gearbox which than makes the agitator go back and forth while also turning the water pump in a direction that actually sucks in air, or water. When the motor spins in the other direction the transmission/gearbox engages so that only the drum spins and the water pump now does its job and pumps out any water in the drum before and while its spinning. With this in mind, and the fact that you say the washer only spins,,,, its possible that the motor is only spinning in one direction allowing the washer to drain and spin,,,, but not agitate.
