Fleet Appliances has 10 tips for you if your washer does not start:

• Is the water inlet hose kinked?
• Are the water inlet valve screens on the washer clogged?
• Is the washer in a normal pause in the cycle?
• Is the timer knob in an Off position?
• Is the timer knob pushed in?
• Is the lid open?
If you answered YES to any of the above please check below to find the solution.
Is the power cord plugged into a grounded 3 prong outlet?
Plug power cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Are you using an extension cord?
Do not use an extension cord.
Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped?
Check to see if a household circuit breaker or Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt (GFCI) outlet has tripped. If so, reset the circuit breaker or Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt. If the washer is on a fuse box, check to see if a fuse has blown and replace it, if necessary. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
Are both the hot and cold water faucets turned on?
Turn on the water. Check the household faucets to see if the hot and/or cold water is shut off. If so, completely open them for proper fill.
NOTE: Both hot and cold water must be connected to the washer and turned on. The washer will not properly operate with only one incoming source of water.
Is the water inlet hose kinked?
Straighten the hoses.
Are the water inlet valve screens on the washer clogged?
Turn off the water and remove the inlet hoses from the washer. Remove any accumulated film or particles from the water inlet valve screens. Reinstall the hoses, turn on water, and check for leaks
.
Is the washer in a normal pause in the cycle?
Some cycles use short soaks (no wash action) to improve fabric care. The wash action turns on and off throughout the wash. The washer may pause for up to 3 minutes during certain cycles. Allow the cycle to continue.
Is the timer knob in the off position?
Make sure the timer knob pointer is lined up with a cycle selection and the knob is pulled out. The washer may not start if the pointer is too close to an Off position. Push in the timer knob. Slightly move the timer knob clockwise, and then pull out the knob. The washer will not start if the timer is not in the correct position.
Is the timer knob pushed in?
Pull out the knob to start the washer. If the lid was opened after the cycle started, the lid may have pushed in the knob. Make sure the knob is pulled out.
Is the lid open?
Your previous washer may have filled and washed with the lid open. Newer washers will not fill or wash with the lid open. The lid must be closed for the washer to fill with water, wash, drain, rinse and spin the load. Close the washer lid before starting the washer.
If these tips do not work and the washer does not fill please call Fleet Appliance Corp
