I have an older Kenmore washer that has always worked fine. Now it just won't turn on nothing happens.?

It's plugged in, the outlet works and the water is on. Am I missing something or is it just dead?I have an older Kenmore washer that has always worked fine. Now it just won't turn on nothing happens.?
Go to www.repairclinic.com and click on Repair Help at the top of the page. It will help you decide whether you want to tackle fixing this washer or not.I have an older Kenmore washer that has always worked fine. Now it just won't turn on nothing happens.?
Sounds like a valve is shorted open. But check to see if you can advance the timer to a spin selection, and if still nothing then you got other problems. Possible in your timer then.
If it is belt driven it might just need a new belt, however if it is gear driven you will be better off to replace the washer.
your water valve may be bad. have you tried it on all temperatures? will it spin in the spin cycle? Have you tried all the cycles?
time to get a new one
