Kathy March 03, 2015 for Model Number WJRE555OH1WW My washer will not spin I have checked the drain no clogs I have also checked the timer and the motor. What else could it be?
1 Answer Hello Kathy. You will need to check the lid switch and make sure the air dome and pressure hose are not clogged on the unit. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Sam. That means to check and see if something has the unit jammed up and not being able to turn. Read More...
Frank July 04, 2014 for Model Number wwse5249goww Does this washer have any fuses and where are they located?
1 Answer Hello Frank. In the wiring harness to the motor, there is fuse links WH49X10055. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...

Jay November 04, 2013 for Model Number Wpre8150k2wt The washer would spin but not agitate. I got 6 flashes on the motor board and checked the shaft drive assembly. Coil was bad, so I replaced it. Now, it won't spin or agitate. It still gives me 6 flashes. The motor doesn't seem to move at all. The pulley and basket seem to move freely. Where do I go from here?
Michael October 29, 2013 for Model Number WBSR3140G0WW My washer washes but does not spin The Green led on the motor computer board flashes continuously I have tried to reset the board by turning it off then repluging it in and raising and lowering the lid 6 times. Still no good However if I wait a long time before trying to reset like over an hour SOMETIMES it works for a short time. I think it may have to drain capacitors somewhere
1 Answer Hello Michael. Check and see if the unit is draining and make sure the air dome on the tub is not clogged. If so, it will prevent the unit from spinning. Read More...
Leonard E August 24, 2013 for Model Number whirlpool washer What would be the problem if I need my splutch assembly replaced , part # W10315818.
1 Answer Leonard, If the splotch assembly has gone out on your washer then the most likely cause for this would be due to overloading of the washer. Read More...
Jim October 19, 2012 for Model Number WJSR4160G1WW The motor led blinks once then long pause. The instruction sheet tells me to replace the motor [brake]. What is the motor brake. Thanks, Jim
1 Answer Hello Jim, The motor brake is an electrical circuit that actually uses the motor as a brake. If the tub takes longer than 25 seconds to stop, the inverter will initiate a brake resistor error code. The brake resistor is permanently molded into the underside of the inverter cover. If the brake requires replacement, this means to replace the motor assembly WH20X10093. Read More...
Andy C July 29, 2012 for Model Number wwse5240g2ww Washer just stopped agitating while in a wash cycle. Motor is free not siezed; turned the pulley by hand. Belt is on and OK. The motor LED is not lit at all. Washer did pump out the water when I moved the cycle knob to the drain position. After the water drained out, the top panel cycle indicator moved to the spin position, but the tub doesn't move at all. Is this the fuse link and exactly where is it located and what am I looking for? Is it up under the lid cover, or nearer the motor connector. I have a DVM to check continuity. Thanks. Andy
1 Answer Andy, Heres the test procedure for an open in line fuse "The fuse is 10-amp, non-resetable and wired in the neutral side of the line. Always check the harness fuse using an ohmmeter from white/red wire on motor connector to neutral on power cord." it should read a "closed" circuit on a meter. If the fuse is OK, you'll need to observe the LED light on the motor control, and determine if the light flashes and how many flashes if at all. Read More...
Mike June 30, 2012 for Model Number WJRR4170G2WW Washer fills and drains but does not agitate or spin. No green LED light on motor. Tested the line fuse, it is blown. I will replace it. I jumped the fuse, green LED started to flash, but the washer plug sparks when plugged into outlet. It did this before when I replaced the lid switch. Looks like a short somewhere? Is it ok to keep using washing machine after i replace the fuse? Don't want to ruin the motor.
1 Answer Hello Mike. You will need to count the number of flashes and use the tech sheet to determine what part is bad in the unit. Read More...
