The Drive Motor is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. This motor powers the drum's rotation during both the wash and spin cycles. It ensures that the drum agitates and spins correctly, allowing for effective cleaning and rinsing of laundry.
Over time, the drive motor can fail due to regular wear and tear, electrical issues, or overloading the washing machine.
Symptoms of a bad drive motor include:
- The drum not spinning or agitating
- Unusual noises or humming sounds during operation
- The washing machine stopping mid-cycle
- Burning smells coming from the motor area
This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.
