I had a small overflow that dripped onto the motor since then the motor overheats. I took the motor off and it turns ok. It works in both directions ok and kicks in when its supposed to but gets really hot and the thermal protection stops it. I have been looking for answers online and some said it could be a timer and not a problem with the motor. Nothing looks burnt that I can see up at the control panel. The knob turns and I can hear it tick. Since the motor runs fine til it gets hot I'm guessing the motor is ok. Anyone have any similar problems?

The motor does have that switch. That is probably what it is since that is at the top of the motor where the water leaked in. I did find a couple of motors for it from around $164. to $98. for new ones. I didn't mind paying that much just didn't want to buy a motor and have it be something else. I'm going to take the motor off again and look at that closer. It's a welded case so I probably won't be able to do much as far as fixing the old one. Thanks
