To re-set the motor on a newer washer, unplug then plug the machine back in again. Within 30 seconds, open the machine lid then close it again six times. I believe you have 12 seconds to open and close the lid six times. This re-sets a motor after a hard shut down. I'm not sure if/how this works with a front loader, or for machines not having the lid lock feature, but if the electrical outlet is hot, I think I'd wait on trying to run the machine before checking on that hot outlet.
