Description

This washer drive motor is the main component that powers the spin cycle of the appliance. When a washing machine stops spinning or washing, there could be several issues. If the buttons on the control panel are still responsive, most likely it is the drive motor. There could also be a burning smell coming from the washer when the drive motor malfunctions. Using a voltage meter is the only way to show where the problem lies. Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply before starting repairs. Drain all the water from the drain hose into a bucket. Remove the two screws at the base of the front panel, then remove the two screws at the top of the back panel. The top console should be removable at this point, and removing the two screws at the bottom outside corners of the back panel should allow the base to be separated. There are two metal clips attaching the pump to the motor. Unplug the connections from the motor and capacitor. Unscrew the two screws that fasten the motor in, and it should slide out. Reverse these instructions for installation of the new component.This Whirlpool washer drive motor is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from Whirlpool. There are no other parts included with this listing. This part is compatible with Whirlpool and Kenmore appliances.
