I'm looking to test the motor on our washing machine - it stopped working last night. I found the testing/replacing motor drive for this unit on your site. I went to do the continuity test but the colored leads on my unit don't match exactly what you have indicated. The motor I have has the following: black, blue, white-violet, white-orange, white-black and yellow.

Can I assume that in my case the violet in your instructions would be the white-violet and the white in your instructions would be the white-orange?

Hi,

Here is the service manual for the direct drive washer. It's the type of washer you have. Check it out and see if it helps.

Thanks for the info. I was able to rule out the motor being faulty.:) Seems to be just the coupler that went bad.
