Sounds like a motor/motor start switch issue. Remove the belts and give the pulley a twist in both directions. The pulley should turn with immense ease. With the belts still removed, advance the timer to the spin portion of the regular cycle and see if the motor is still being tripped on and off. Any weird noises, like a bearing going out (specifically, the radial bearing)? As always, check your connections and wiring to and from the motor and motor start switch. |

Ok after taking the machine apart and testing the motor without the belts, it smoked. The windings are fried. Anybody know where I can get a motor for this unit? thanks Jon |
