This drive motor powers the appliance's primary motion, converting electrical energy into steady rotation for normal operation. Replacing a weak, noisy, or failed motor restores reliable movement and helps cycles start and finish as expected.

• Common symptoms: unit won't start or the mechanism doesn't move
• Humming, grinding, or intermittent operation under load
• Overheating, burning odor, or tripping a breaker/fuse

What's included: 1 drive motor Install notes:

• Disconnect power; shut off gas/water supplies if present
• Photograph wire routing; transfer any brackets, pulleys, grommets, or hardware from the original motor
• Verify mounting orientation, belt/pulley alignment, and free shaft rotation before reassembly
• Run a short test cycle and check for abnormal noise or vibration after installation
