OEM washer drive motor that spins the basket and drives the agitator or spin basket during agitation or tumbling.

Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Washer does not spin properly
• Washer does not agitate properly
• Motor hums but the basket does not move
• Burning smell from the motor area
• Unusual motor-area noise
• Motor or basket operation stops unexpectedly

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect power before inspection.
• Verify the washer’s model-specific service diagnostics or motor test does not report a motor, speed-sensing, or drive fault.
• Inspect the motor wiring harness and connector for looseness, damage, or corrosion.
• Inspect the drive belt and motor pulley for breakage, looseness, or abnormal wear.
• With power disconnected, check whether the drive system turns freely enough to distinguish a seized or obstructed mechanism from an electrical motor problem.
• Do not conclude the motor has failed until the belt, pulley, wiring, controls, and other drive components have also been checked.
