1. The Pulsator rotates normally at the
beginning of wash cycle, but is it not
rotate at clockwise direction (locked)
after some wash cycles though there
is motor-working sound?
2. In the case the pulsator doesn't
rotates either clockwise or
counterclockwise from the beginning
of wash cycle:
1) Check resistance of the wash
motor if there is no motor-working
sound.
2) Check belt tension & whether the
clutch rotates normally if there is
motor-working sound.
3. The pulsator doesn't rotate at both
directions.
1) Check whether motor rotates at
both directions if there is motor-
working sound when it's
energized.
2) Check resistance of the motor if
there is no motor-working sound.
