Magic Chef Washer CAV2004AWW Won't start or doesn't start

The Motor Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It drives the agitator and drum, enabling the machine to effectively clean and rinse clothes during the wash cycle. The motor assembly is crucial for the proper operation and performance of the washing machine.

Over time, the motor assembly can wear out or become damaged due to factors such as heavy usage, electrical issues, or mechanical failures. These problems can lead to a malfunctioning motor, affecting the washer's ability to operate correctly.

Symptoms of a bad Motor Assembly include:

• The washer not spinning or agitating
• Unusual noises during operation
• The drum not moving
• The washer failing to start

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This lid switch actuator engages the washer's safety switch when the lid is closed so cycles can start and spin as designed. Replace a broken or missing actuator to restore proper lid switch engagement and reliable operation.

• Engages the lid switch when the lid is closed to enable agitation and spin
• A worn, cracked, or missing actuator can cause the washer not to start or to stop before spin
• Intermittent operation that changes when pressing on the lid often indicates misalignment
• Lack of an audible "click" from the lid switch can point to a faulty actuator or alignment

• Disconnect power before servicing; do not work on a live appliance
• Access the lid/switch area per your model's service procedure
• Remove the damaged actuator and install the new part, securing as designed
• Before reassembly, close the lid to ensure the switch clicks and engages properly
