Answer

Hello Marco. There have been problems with the motor wire harness connector on these washers. The problems are either a loose or bent terminal in the molex connector. Unplug the connector and tug on each wire. If a wire comes loose from the plug, bend the locking tab up. If a locking tab is not properly seated in the plug connector, the terminals will not fully engage as the connector is plugged into the motor. Another manifestation of this problem is that one of the terminals may be bent. Inspect the terminals on the motor side of the connector. Straighten any bent terminals if they exist. Recheck the harness side of the terminal block if any bent terminals are found. Bent terminals can indicate a problem with the locking tab inside the plug. If the connections are good, you will need to replace the motor WP34001437. Hope this helps.
