7. Raise the front of the motor high enough to
disengage the motor alignment pin from the pin
locator hole, then slide the motor forward so
that the 2 rear spacers clear the drive pulley.
8. Remove the rear two 3/8-in. motor nuts.
9. Tilt the top of the motor towards the shaft
and tube. Lift and remove the motor from the
platform.
WARNING: The motor casing is NOT at chassis
ground potential. Voltage may be present on the
motor casing. To prevent electrical shock, do not
touch the motor when connected to power.
Caution: To prevent motor, inverter, or main control
board damage, make certain all isolators are in
place when reinstalling motor to platform.
Note: When replacing the motor, ensure the motor
alignment pins are fully inserted in the pin locator
holes in the platform before tightening motor nuts.

Note: When replacing a motor, check its brake
operation. Place washer in a spin cycle and lift the
lid after it has reached full speed. The basket should
stop within 7 seconds. If time exceeds 7 seconds,
check the lid switch operation, and check the belt
for worn ribs or slippage due to residue on the belt
or pulleys.

Harness Fuse

A non re-settable 10-amp fuse is wired into the
neutral side of the line. The fuse is wrapped in the
motor harness located along the right side of the
cabinet.

If the fuse is open, agitate, spin, and mode shifting
do not occur. Check the fuse connections and wiring
harness.
Caution: Bending the harness can damage the fuse.
If the harness is OK, check the inverter/motor. A
shorted brake resistor or internal motor problem
can cause fuse failure.
Note: If the fuse is open, use harness fuse kit (part
number WH49X10041). Instructions are included
with the kit.
Alignment Pin Suspension
Pin Locator Hole
The tub and motor assembly (spin basket, outer tub,
inverter motor, shaft and mode shifter assembly
and platform) is suspended by four rod and spring
assemblies. The rod and spring assemblies are
attached to each corner of the cabinet. They
extend down and connect to the platform. This
arrangement provides limited movement to the tub
and motor assembly, independent of the cabinet
when agitating and spinning, thus reducing cabinet
travel and vibration. Front and rear suspension rod
compressions vary to compensate for different
model characteristics. The rods are color-coded to
ensure that they are replaced in the correct position.
The outer tub has 4 dampening straps attached to
the four corners of the cabinet. These straps prevent
excessive outer tub rotation and movement during
the wash cycle.
