looks like my washing machine may have washed it's last wash.

it is currently full of water and won't spin, won't drain. 

It is 18.5 years old.  And we've moved... a lot.  So really it doesn't owe us anything but... really pick a bad time?

Guess I'm looking at new washing machines tomorrow and weighing that against a service call.

Yes, we took it apart but... cannot easily see the problem - and really 18 years?

Oh dear. Hm. Fan belt and plugged drain? Those would be my first thoughts. You could call for a service call and get an estimate.

On the other hand, prices are going down, down, down in an attempt to get people to buy things. 18.5 years is a decent age for an appliance.

Hubby *thinks* that the local appliance dealer has an offer where they will apply the cost?(half the cost?) of your service call against a new purchase if you decide not to repair & buy new with their shop. So that's where I'm headed first.

Plus they deliver & haul away the old at no charge so... first stop!

yeah we're thinking pump. but...is it worth fixing? I'll be asking.
