We moved our washer to our new house and after hooking it back up it won't start. It does nothing. We checked to make sure the outlet worked and it does. Any suggestions on what I can check?

have you checked the fuse in the plug? And is the water switched on? and correct water pressure available?
 
True, i didn't see the little american flag at first! So what happens if they have a dodgy appliance, it trips the MCB for that ring? so you'd have to go round and unplug everything to figure out the culpret?

ring, what ring they dont have them either.

The thing is with American wiring is that not only is it different voltage they have different regulations (codes as they call them) and all the colours are differnt. for instance over here black is neutral, in america black is LIVE.

Because we are not qualified to answer most of us don't for fear of getting it wrong and also in general it is pointless to reply to Americans as most of them post once and never heard of again, not even to say thanks. its a sad fact really, we would like more Ameicans on this forum but as i said quite often they post and go.
