Kenmore Washer Repair – Canton, OH (110/82881110)

A Kenmore washer in Canton, OH stopped spinning during its cycle. The spin cycle stopped, leaving clothes soaking wet. Our diagnosis revealed a motor failure that made replacement the better option.

The Problem

The customer reported that the spin cycle stopped working on their Kenmore washer. The machine would fill and agitate normally but wouldn’t drain or spin the water out of clothes.

Diagnosis

Motor not spinning backward to drain/spin. Machine not in good shape. The washer’s motor had failed in the reverse direction needed for the drain and spin functions, while the forward agitation still worked.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: No parts recorded
• Work performed: Diagnosed motor failure
• Result: Advised to replace washer

Is It Worth Repairing?

For this older Kenmore washer with motor failure, replacement made more sense than repair. Motor replacements on washers this age often cost more than the machine’s remaining value, especially when other components are also showing wear.

Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Washers

• Balance loads properly to reduce strain on the motor and transmission
• Clean the drain pump filter monthly to prevent motor overwork
• Use the correct amount of detergent to avoid excess suds that stress the motor
