Hey folks, I just need to know if the motor is bad or the speed controller. I know the motor is getting some kind of power, I used a hot line detector and when the controller is whining (I think its the controller whining) and then if you spin the drum from the pully side by hand the motor will take over. But if leave it alone it will not aggitate or spin at all.
I have the back cover off and am trying to replace only the bad part.
A little history, well I just had to replace the rear tub assy due to a bearing failure. When I put it back together it ran great for about two months.
If there are any procedures for testing the parts with multimeters please let me know what needs to be checked and the tolerances.
Thanks for all the help.
