Loc D Monterey Park , CA August 16, 2015 Appliance: Model MAYTAG WASHING MACHINE. Burnt motor I'm a mechanic myself. This is a handy man job I've replaced the washer motors before. Quite easy for me. It's just a matter of removing the whole machine to an open space so I can have access to work on it. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours
