The Model # is WJSR2070B2WW. It was off balance and started making a horrible noise and wouldn't agitate or spin. It does fill up and pump the water back out. My son looked at it and pushed on something underneath and it agitated, but still wouldn't spin. He says he thought some "shaft" was bent. He is not an appliance repair person, though. Online sites are suggesting some coupler thing could be the problem. I am praying it is not the clutch or transmission. This washer is only 4 years old. We are on fixed income and can't afford costly repair or new washer. If we knew what it was, son could probably fix it. HELP!!

Your machine is belt driven and does not use a belt. Sounds like it went off balance and bent up the lid switch assembly. Remove the front of the washer. You will find a 1/4" screw on each side holding the top down. Remove the screws and raise the top until it disengages from the rear panel. The lid switch assembly is under this part. If damaged beyond repair the part # for a new one is WH12X1043. Also inspect the damping straps. They look like little bungee cords and help keep the tub centered. There is one at each corner. If one is broken change them all with part # WH1X2727. They cost about 4.50 each and a new lid switch would cost around 31.25.
Good luck.

It could be the motor bearings are worn. the transmission is no good if it won't go through the different cycles. But the trans. won't work if the motor is bad. It's usually cheaper to buy a used one that to get that fixed. motors usually run about 100.00 or so.
