Have you blown a household fuse or tripped a circuit breaker? Has a time-delay fuse been used?

Are both the hot and cold water faucets turned on?

Are the water hoses kinked or clogged?

Is the drain hose lower than the water level in the washer? It must be higher.

H Is the lid closed?

Is the Cycle Control Knob set and pulled out?
