Washer Repair

The washer will go into spin cycle but wont go into high speed spin cycle. resulting in clothes that are still soaked. All other functions work correctly. The washing machine is a top loader. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Remove the front panel. Locate the LED on top of the motor, beneath the inverter cover and view it for diagnostic testing.

Report number of LED flashes during a 6 second period.

The 9 flashes means "the break resistor is open". The correction is to replace the motor.

- The part number for the motor is AP4339494
