Rank: Member Groups: Registered Joined: 3/14/2011(UTC) Posts: 1		I have a Maytag dryer model MDE3000AYW. The drum won't turn. I've taken the drum belt off and tried to run the motor. The motor shaft turns about 1/8 of a revolution, clicks and then repeats the cycle. Is the motor bad? Are the bearings bad? Can the bearings be replaced without replacing the motor? Thanks!

Are the bearings bad? [/COLOR] Yes, it does sound like a bad motor. I do not think that it is bad bearings. Sounds like the main winding may be burned out (open).
