I went on you tube with the noisy motor issue and this site gave me the answer, so it was an easy fix. I just watched it a couple of times, no real tools involved, screwdriver, I just unplugged washer, no need to unhook water, I did buy the extra washers / gaskets recommended and you will need them so that was good. Took my time all in 45 minutes and it works great like a new machine. This would have been a $500 repair if I called someone. Thanks guys, I have now repaired my fridge, oven, and dishwasher with you and they're not that old. The new stuff today just does not last and I didn't buy the cheap ones. Dave O.
