Kenmore 70 Series Washer: No spin or agitate.

[max_power]

Good evening everyone.  I inherited a Kenmore Washer 70 Series, Model 110, 22702.  It won’t spin or agitate.  I checked the cover switch and that’s fine.  I checked the couplings and they also seem fine.  Sometimes, I can hand start the drum to spin, but it lasts for like 2 seconds and quits.  When I run the spin cycle, I can hear the motor running, and I can see it spinning.  Well, I think it’s the motor.  See Picture 1.  It’s the metal disk that spins. 

The water drains out. 

The agitator dogs are fine. 

There’s what appears to be a loose belt or something above the spinning disk.  See Picture 1. 

When I took apart the agitator, that long rod with the grooves on it didn’t move.  See picture 2.  Terrible picture, I’m sorry.  The top piece with grooves is what I’m referring to. 

So, do you guys think it’s the transmission, the clutch, the drive block or something else?   

I no next to nothing about washers, but I’m pretty handy.  All the jargon above I gleaned from this sight.  I want to order replacement parts, but I want to diagnose the problem before I order a ton of parts I don’t need. 

I can grab pics or movies if this will help.

Thanks

pic # 1 is not a belt, its there to keep noise down only.
 
pic # 2 should not move.
 
sounds like the clutch pad are worn, do you have the correct or full mod. number.

1.  Thanks!
2.  OK, so that's good then. 

I looked and it's MOD 110. 22702 100, Type III, and there was a part number on that sticker: 3952966

looks like the part # 285790
Does the washer agitate @ all?, this part will only help the spin.

in pic #1 , it looks like the transmission leaking oil, is this correct?

[max_power]

The washer doesn't agitate at all.

There does appear to be oil down there. It's pretty slick. There isn't a ton of it though.

This thing is old. Should I even bother fixing it?

Thanks everyone

Sounds like a it would be best to get a new 1 it would probly cost more than a new 1 to repair
