Hello GF57, As per the tech sheet for the model you provided: Sd is displayed when the machine/motor control, by analyzing drag on the basket, detects a suds-lock condition, and is steady on while the control then runs a mini-clean out cycle. If the clean out cycle is unable to correct the over-sudsing problem, the cycle ends and Sd flashes in the display. This may signify: ? Load is bunched or twisted around agitator. ? Excessive detergent usage. ? Basket cannot engage during drain step. ? Mechanical friction on drive mechanism, not allowing basket to engage. This may be caused by items between the tubs or the rps on the stator assembly. Since you mentioned the rotor was cracked, look for signs of damage to the rotor and rps since the rotor has to contact something to cause the crack.
