I would lift the top and hand spin the drum while pressing the start button and it would begin working. Lately it runs only breifly and it emits a humming noise which gets progressively louder until it shuts off! Once it shuts off it won't restart until it cools off again but the does the same. I noticed the drum seams to spin counterclockwise much easier than clockwise(normal operating direction). Any Ideas?

Clean the lint and lubricate all moving parts (the front & rear rollers and idler pulley). Check how freely the motor shaft is moving. If there is a lot of tension, you can try to lubricate the motor bearings using a car engine oil (SAE 10-30). If it would not help, replace the motor. All tear down instructions are in the Service manual. - The drum support rollers (pack of 2) Part number: AP3098345 - The idler pulley Part number: AP3094197 - The motor Part number: AP3094233 Gene.
