Drive Motor

Dan from MA

Motor bearings were going out, there was a loud whining sound when the washer would spin.

I called a appliance repairman and he said due to the symptoms and age of my washer he suggested I take a look at it myself using online videos and be prepared to purchase a new one. I took his advice and isolated the problem to the motor, upon further investigation it appeared the motor bearings were going out. I found the exact part on partsdr.com for much less than anywhere else, it arrived quickly and to my pleasant surprise switching out the motor only took 10 minutes. Now my washer works great, I get the satisfaction of doing it myself and save some money.
