Estate Model No: ETW4400WQ1 The dryer fills up with water to the size it should be, then proceeds to hum when the lid is shut and does not spin/agitate. Eventually the humming stops, and it will wait a while and begin humming again. It also will not drain if I manually move the timer to the Spin cycle, or any other part. I took out the motor and the coupler seems fine, maybe a bit dusty but it certainly is not broken. I haven't checked the lid switch yet, because there is an obvious click when closing the lid, and if the washer hasn't given up yet it will begin humming as if it wants to do something but does not. If the timer is supposed to *always* rotate whether or not something is happening, it is not doing that. I don't know enough how washers work and could not for the life of me find out if that should happen, or if it will only rotate once the cycle process begins. I called a repair place but got no response so I am coming here. Would love to do what it takes to get this repaired today. Thanks to anyone who can help.

I took just about everything off of this thing to remove the crud, but I cannot for the life of me get the spray arm off, which is where I think the issue is. It will run and not spin, won't spray water, and when I turn it off, it will barf up water from lower spray arm. Every GE tutorial I've seen says there's a lever at the bottom to release the arm. There's a small hole in the back of this one but no lever. I've tried pushing a screwdriver in there to no avail. How do I get this thing off? Here are pics of the arm: [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/pecnwezkwlcpmud/20150917_190314.jpg?dl=0[/url] [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/4ex2hs16jl8zzz1/20150917_190319.jpg?dl=0[/url]
