Why does my washing machine make noise when not in use?

I woke up this morning to a strange noise coming from my laundry room. My washer seemed to be making a noise that sounded like it was slightly running (not agitating or filling with water, just kind of humming). The noise stopped when I unplugged it. But when I tried to turn it on to run a cycle, nothing happened. None of the lights turned on or anything at all. When I plug it back in, the sound starts again after about 5 to 10 seconds.

Update (10/28/23)

The noise seems to be coming from the water drainage hose. It is like it's trying to empty water from the machine but it's not turned on.

"The noise stopped when I unplugged it. But when I tried to turn it on to run a cycle, nothing happened." >> you didn't plug it in!

"When I plug it back in, the sound starts again after about 5 to 10 seconds." >> Your water pump may be activating. If anything is activating when it is OFF, that would indicate a defective controller.

I did plug it back in when I tried to run the cycle. I didn't try to turn it on after I had unplugged it.

Thank you so much for the info about the defective controller. I will look into it. Thank you.
