Washer is 15 year old top loading model.
If its the transmission is it worth it to replace it?
Thanks for your help.

If the rest of the washer is in good condition, it is worth spending
the money on the repair, if the rest of the washer is in rough shape,
start shopping.

Does it drain? What happens instead?

If you're married- tell your wife buy a new one. The brownie points
you get for a new washer are priceless.
If you're single,or your wife is just unbelievably frugal, follow
Jeff's advice.

Mechanical dial timer or digital?
If the former, it could be just a matter of the timer contacts not
making. If so you can replace the timer, expensive, but worth it if
the unit is mechanically sound.
I fixed a timer with that problem one time by drilling out the old
burnt contacts and replacing them with tiny brass screws that had the
head ground down. Got another four years out of a washer that was
older than yours.

Did you check the door switch? Might be broken.
