Washer won't power up or fill or do anything at all
Screwy one here - I’ve got a kenmore series 80 washer that won’t power up at all, just wouldn’t turn on one day after a normal cycle. It won’t fill, won’t spin, won’t make noise of any kind. It’s getting power, my power dectector lights on the main harness, and when it’s turned on the other harnesses light up the detector as well. When it is set to fill the fill valve power lines light up, but don’t open. I’ve replaced the timer (no effect), bypassed the both the fill sensor and lid switch, no effect. Next I’m replacing the fill valves - but even if that was the problem, it should still spin and drain when the dial is set to do that, right? It won’t do ANYTHING.
I still need to check the voltage going into the lines with an actual voltage detector to rule out a failing power cord I suppose, but other than that I have no idea what this could be. I’ve done many successful repairs on machines more complex than this, yet this one has me stumped. Is there something on there that overrides EVERY function if it fails?

It was the power cord, one of the wires was chewed through. I should have checked that first thing.

Hi,
What is the model number of the washer?

Unsure - all I know at present is that it is about 20 years old.
