Hot Burning smell
Hi Paul, Unplug it take the front off [ two screws at the bottom front and pop the top at the front and lift the front panel off the studs ] then tip the washer on its back remove the belt and see if the motor and pump turn easily in both directions.
Then turn the main drive pulley in one direction it should cause the agitator to move, the other direction it should turn smoothly but nothing will happen till you release the brake by closing the brake soloinoid with your other hand while turning the main drive pulley, now the tub should turn.
When you tested the machine with water did it leak at all ? Are there signs that the washer has leaked from the area above the transmission as evidenced by a possible rusty stain on the inside of the cabinet and front panel ?
If everything checks out mechanically it could have an electrical problem, Norge built washers with the 3/4 HP motor were famous for burned timer contacts etc, also durning look at and smell the motor for burning windings.

PS, Thanks Bob and Greg for pointing out that this was not quite a TOL model, in this area we just never saw any Norge washers this fancy, but I knew that they certainly never built a 3 speed 20 pound machine.
