I would clean the connection with contact cleaner and reseat them, and do the same on the motor connection, but at the end of the day it may mean your motor is failing. Here is a service manual for your machine that will show you how to get into it and do some testing. http://www.servicematters.com/m...ibrary/docs/16026315.pdf
