Hi all

i have a kenmore 8318015(this could be wrong only one i could find still looking)
i have been looking through the previous posts and right now i'm at the
stage where i have the motor sat on the floor only connected to the power
ok it will spin anti clockwise (washing) but then it will not go clockwise it
tries to and i can spin it by hand and yes you do get the burning smell.
thanks for any help

ps with the motor sitting on the floor is it possible to check for forward and reverse

thanks again

thanks for the reply
just wondering if you could point me in the right direction please
looking at the connector at the motor i have these colour wires
Red , orange , gray , green/yellow , yellow , blue , blue/white
ok could you tell me which two wires i should check for anticlockwise motion
(as that works) and then which two i should check for forward motion.

thank you..
