Unit has power, door latch switches tests good and output 120v. Does not start water pump or motor. Found and replaced timer assembly. noticed burnt connectors, so that was definitly bad. still have same problem. Unit has power but nothing happens when i set it to run. Any suggestions?
Did the part come in for this, and is it working now?
JB, make sure the float assy. is not stuck inside the tub. On the motor harness, you have yellow-main, red-drain grey-wash and blue is the common. Check for power to the motor during the wash cycle. On this model I believe they installed a thermal cut out after series 11. I'll keep an eye peeled for any replies..Catriver.
jb, it's a limiting thermostat, sits on the bottom of the tub, undernieth, inline with the heaters. Check to see if it's open, Did you have power to the motor during the wash cycle? Catriver
jb, did you do the voltage checks at the motor? The dried oil, syrup looking stuff could be coming from the start capacitor for the wash motor. If that's bad, motor won't start. Catriver.
Jb, I think you found your problem, power to the motor and motor isn't running. During the wash cycle, Grey to blue should be reading 120V. The motor does have a internal overload. Catriver.

by thermal cutout do you mean the thermistor limit switch?
yes i checked it... its closed as it should be i believe. I did notice a dried oil maple syrup coloered pool on the floor underneath the motor. Any ideas?
Catriver,
I will check that 2 nite, i do have the electrical schematicfor this. I noticed in the motor section there is a "Overload protecter" it has a fuse like symbo that looks like a sine wave what is it? is it accesible?
Thanks

No voltage to the motor wires
disregard the last comment, thereis 120 volts down belwo, I did measure this 2 pronged device that is mounted in the motor on the bottom, there is no continuity,it called a overload protector is parralle with the motor windings according to the schematic.
shorted internal overload wires and it works that part is on order
Have power to unit have Power when door is latched but nothing will come on
