This happens to have happened when I installed a new washer right next to it, so maybe it is from physical damage or something else.  I don't remember hitting the unit at all.

When the start button is pressed, there is a buzzing sound but there is no turning of the drum.  If I move the dial to other settings (I included a screen shot of the dials below), such as cottons, there is no buzzing at all when I press the start button.  Also, on the time dry setting, it will not buzz at 80 minutes but will when dialed down to 60.  

If there is buzzing, I assume there is no issue with the door switch or power to it.  I checked the vent and it seems to be clear.

Any suggestions anyone might have as to the issue I would greatly appreciate the insight.  I am going to be gone for the evening but if there are any follow up questions, I am happy to answer them when I can.

Thanks for the help!
