Today, I replaced the drive coupler on this machine after finding it broken when the spin cycle stopped working. Thought I had the machine fixed, but when I put everything back together and started a load, it flipped off the breaker switch within a few seconds of starting into the agitation cycle after it filled. The load was no bigger than any other load we have washed before. I had ran it empty in the spin cycle before putting a load in (after I replaced the coupler) and it flipped the switch in that mode after about 10-15 seconds, also.
Is this a motor problem, or could the new coupler be too tight and putting too much strain on the motor? Thanks in advance for any help.
