OK Thanks, & will try to replace the start relay & see if that works, I'm thinking it is cheaper to buy than a motor ( haven't checked that yet).

As long as you didn't damage any of the seals removing the motor, you should be able to reuse them.

Thank you but I was thinking I would try replacing the starter relay as that was making a funny sound. This was kind of hinted at in your first post.
If I put back the motor, will I need a gasket set.
Maybe you have a part # for the starter relay?
Thanks

The proper gaskets or seals should cme with the replacement motor.

Hi, was wondering if anyone can help with this
part #?
Gasket set - is it needed?
Thanks for all your help!

Thank you
-didn't see the smaller # at first...

Do I need to get any gasket set to put the motor and related assembly back together? Or any alignment tool?
Thanks!

This is a start relay. We can't help you with a part number without a complete model number (including the three smaller digits before the dot.).

Hi,
This beast is not draining: so far I have..
Checked the drain tube to the sink - not clogged.
Unscrewed & checked the check valve - it is clean
Removed the motor, it spins freely in both directions
( I think for this model the motor spins backwards to evacuate the water.
With motor off, re-joined the plugs & ground, motor would not spin when put on drain cycle.
When I put it on the drain cycle there is a noise ( kinda heavy vibrating sound - which seems to come from a small red-wire wound unit ( size of a sewing thread spool). I notice the motor getting VERY warm. Noise stops after 15 sec or so, cannot get it to do it again via drain cycle unless I wait, then I hear a click in the motor - only then can I recreate the sound.
One of the wires from the main cable go to this red wire spool, ( about 4 go to it in total) then a wire comes from it to the motor. Unplugging this wire, the motor does nothing and no sound is heard.
On the drain cycle I am getting 120 volts from one of the wires that goes to the motor.
So I am thinking I need a new motor or that wound-red-wire thing ( is it a transformer of some sort?)
If I get a new motor ( I'll see what is said here) do I need new gaskets and an alignment tool? Anything else that needs to be replaced when replacing a motor? :confused:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
If I can get it working again, I will save about $400:eek: in these tough time instead of buying a new one..
