Coils heat. Drum spins freely when spun by hand but motor hums when start button is pushed and motor does not spin drum. Does this sound like a dead motor?

Answer Hello Matt,
You need to remove the top from the unit and see if the belt is on. If the belt is broken, you should check the rear bearing WE25M40, idler pulley WE12X83, and glides WE1M504, WE1M1067. If they don't spin freely, they should be replaced. You can also check the motor WE17M38 since the start winding can be failing.
