How to Determine if the Motor Coupler is Broken in your Washing Machine
HOW TO 
Tags: Motor Coupler, Washing Machine, Broken Washing Machine, Washing Machine Problems
Are your clothes coming out wet at the end of the spin cycle? Follow these instructions to find out if you have a broken motor coupler in your Whirlpool or Kenmore washing machine.
| 1. | Set the timer dial in the regular wash cycle. If the washer fills to the selected level and starts agitating properly, then the problem is not a broken motor coupler. |
| 2. | If the washer fills to the selected level and you hear the motor running but the washer is not agitaing, set the dial on the spin cycle. If the washer drains the water and you hear the motor running (making noise but not spinning), it is likely you have a broken motor coupler. |
| 3. | If you replace the motor coupler yourself it probably will cost you about $20. |
| 4. | If you have to have a repairman come to your house and do the repair for you, it could cost you about $120. |
