My Lady K has just developed the habit of setting off the circuit breaker when it uses the low speed. It takes about 10 seconds of it running on the low speed then the circuit breaker shuts off the power, it's on it's own 15 amp circuit with the Fisher Paykel washer and the F&P wasn't running which means the Lady K is drawing more than 15 amps. Any suggestions?

I was thinking start switch. If it's a bit sticky, it may be that high speed develops enough force to open it, but low speed doesn't. | ||

Lady Kenmore says....... It's either the timer energizing both windings (high and low speed at the same time) or a bad motor. Disconnect the blue wire going to the motor and run it on low speed. If it works fine then you have a bad timer. | ||
