Your clothes will probably stay in a better mood without all that agitation.

If I am not mistaken "and I don't think I am" your machine has a drive coupling between the motor and transmission. These couplings are subject to failure. They consist of two plastic hubs with fingers on them. One is pressed on the transmission shaft and the other on the motor shaft. There is a flexible rubber disk that engages the fingers between the two hubs. They are fairly easy to work on in the way they are designed. There are spring clips that hold the pump on the end of the motor and there are spring clips that hold the motor to the transmission. If you unplug the electrical connection to the motor the motor is easily removed to replace the coupling. The couplings have been redesigned to give longer life but they still sell the earlier design as well. The coupling shouldn't be over about $20. ...Good Luck...

When you run the machine, does it make a noise like it should be agitating or not?
If it doesn't make a noise, and the timer progresses, it could be the timer or the motor.
If it does make a noise like it is running but doesn't agitate, then that is the transmission, they call it a "wig wag" sometimes.
Depending on the age of the machine, usually it is more cost effective to replace it, especially if it is the motor or wig wag.
Good Luck

The main problem with washing machines tend to be the pump. It is either blocked or it has packed in. There is usually a flap at the bottom of the machine with a filter behind it. Remove the filter and clean it but make sure you have a basin under it as all the water will come out. This will have to be done in order to empty the machine and this will also allow the door to be opened. If the filter is clean then the pump will have to be replaced which is not a very difficult job to do.

Could be any of several problems. Electrical or belt. Also probable is the transmission. Do you hear the motor running?
Does the machine make noise when it should be washing.
Will the drum spin?Is it plugged in?
If it spins but won't wash, go shopping for a new one. You can spend in repairs the cost of a new one.

I tend to lean toward A_Kansan's answer. If it spins, but won't agitate (or vice-versa), then the WigWag(an actual part) is the likely culprit. They are easy to replace and, last I looked, not expensive.

the dog ears in the agitator are probably broke, thats what mine is doing right now. you can get them and replace them yourself. they are just plastic clips that make it agitate.

sounds like the belt is off or broke

Your belt is probably loose, or the transmission is dead
