Not all.
Overloading your Kenmore front load washing machine can cause increased wear on the Belt drive. Over time, the belt may wear out and break.
In a top loading machine, remove the front panel. It's easier if the machine is tilted back a little. Under the bottom of the machine, there are two belts, the pump belt and the drive belt. The drive belt is the belt located underneath the pump belt. In a front loading machine, the back panel of the machine must be removed. The belt is located right behind the drum.
If the drive motor is working the most likely cause is a worn or broken belt.
Check if your washing machine is overloaded with clothes or not as this can cause several malfunctioning issues. This includes power problems, defects with the user control board or timer, obstructed drain pump, or a broken drive belt. If it is still not working, it is recommended to consult with a professional appliance repair service to identify and solve the issue as soon as possible.

A computer within a washing machine controls many aspects: The user interface, that is, buttons, LEDs, display, buzzer, are all driven and managed by a computer. The washing program is controlled by a computer: when to heat the water and how much, when and how to spin, etc. Modern washing machines measure the cleanness of the washing and optimize the washing cycle's duration to wash as long as necessary while completing as soon as possible. Modern washing machines also feature sophisticated spinning and load-balancing algorithms which reduce vibrations during the spinning, thus reducing noise and mechanical stress. A washing machine's computer will also monitor safety equipment: for example, a frontloader's door must be securely locked before water is allowed in. Water flow must be confirmed, and the required amount of water must be in the machine before the heating is allowed on, etc. The washing machine's computer will also monitor the machine's general state of health and maintenance. For example, after a set number of hours of active usage, the machine might display a recommendation to replace the drive belt, or to clean the fluff filter.
