could be timer or motor, both are expensive

This is a common problem with top load washine machines it is usualy the motor drive coupler.
Here is a link to the part and a video on how to replace it.
I would suggest watchine the Video before you order the part then you can check if this is the problem

When that type of washer does that it sounds like a transmission. There not too hard to change.

bad coupling / it connects transmission to motor,, part # 285753 around $ 12.00 to $32.95 look for for black rubber under washer indication part is broken

Likely the lid switch is failed if it still agitates.

If no agitation - look into the transmission or coupling.

You have to remove the transmission and open it up. If it leaked out, you have more problems like worn seals, etc. that would need replaced.

IF THE WATER IS PUMPED OUT BUT THE CLOTHES ARE NOT SPUN YOU MAY HAVE A CLUTCH ISSUE NOT VERY EXPENSIVE IF YOU FIND A GOOD COMPANY

and also the "drive motor to transmission coupling" is probably broken. You need a repair person.

You have a drive coupler. That is what makes it spin. It connects the motor to the transmission.

the problem is most likely to be the motor coupling is broken between the motor and the transmission
