I have a Frigidaire washer dryer combo and the washer isn’t working. It fills with water, but when it is supposed to agitate or spin is just makes a humming noise without any action. I have replaced the belt and the door safety latch. I am not sure the timer is bad because when I move it manually, the washer will drain, just not agitate or spin when it is supposed to. Any suggestions?
Thank you.

One of two things are possibly at fault. The start capacitor http://www.appliancepartspros.com/frigidaire-capacitor-131212301-ap2106312.html may be bad. It should test out between 233-280 MFD. If it tests ok then the motor http://www.appliancepartspros.com/frigidaire-motor-134159500-ap3219509.html is likely your issue.
Thank you for your reply. I had a spare start capacitor and I was able to replace it quickly. It fixed the problem.
