W10832724 Whirlpool 1/3 Hp Main Drive Motor for Washing Machines

This product is a 1/3 HP main drive motor for washing machines, designed as a genuine OEM replacement part. It is suitable for a range of models from brands such as Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures compatible components for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea appliances.

The motor is essential for driving the washer's drum, enabling it to rotate and agitate according to the selected settings. Over time, motors can wear out or malfunction, which may necessitate a replacement to maintain the appliance's performance.

To determine if a replacement is necessary, disconnect the washing machine from its power source and use a multimeter to check the resistance in the motor windings. A reading of infinite resistance indicates that the motor should be replaced. It is advisable to wear work gloves during the replacement process to avoid injuries.

This motor is constructed from high-quality, durable, non-corrosive materials, ensuring reliability and longevity. It is available for individual purchase and is compatible with multiple washing machine brands, including those mentioned earlier.
