My dryer struggles to start tumbling with light loads and difficulty seems to increase with load size. Here's what I've done to date;
[LIST=1]
  • Replaced motor capacitor (part # 170858): No change.
  • Checked motor & capacitor wiring: Seems ok to me.
  • Replaced motor (part # 141855): No change.
  • Check control board: Passed all programs and checks.
  • Cleaned and lubed drum bearing: No change.[/LIST]Here are my current thoughts; The capacitor I used for replacement is defective, or possibly the drum felt seal needs replacement or lubrication. I would love to hear comments and thoughts of others. My laundry is starting to pile up and the wife is not too happy.


    Thanks in Advance,
    Thomas
