Bob for Model Number Maytag MVWC400XW0

Maytag MVWC400XW0 Maytag Centennial Washer I've replaced lid switch, actuator, splutch, W11035204 NEW Whirlpool Maytag Washer Gear Case Genuine OEM FSP by Whirlpool, drain pump. When I go to calibrate the washer using the proper method, it sits there making small noises, sounds like the gear case is moving some, no water tries to go into washer , then all the green lights and the red light turns off without running through all the items with a green light as it should. Any ideas that would help me get this thing to work properly? Thanks................

Answer

Bob, you may want to test the motor W10836348 windings by going to connection J16 on the main control. At this connection, you will want to measure for resistance from pin 5 to pin 6, then pin 5 to pin 7, and the motor should have an ohm reading of 3.5 to 6 ohms. If the resistance is not within that limit, then the motor has failed. If the motor checks good, then the most likely issue would be with the main control W10393490.
