whirlpool awod 6507

[washman3]

AWOD 6507/1S is very noisy during washing and spinning. i suspected the drum bearings but after removing the belt and running a cycle discovered the noise is from the motor. would this be the bearings or the speed tacho attached to the back and can it be replaced or do i need to buy a new motor.?
P.S. motor brushes are perfect and comm looks fine.

It will only be available as a full motor spare part wise and, knowing Whirlpool, you’ll need oxygen handy for when you get a price on it.

I’d need the PNC number from the rating plate to locate the part for you or a price but I’d expect the thick end or £130-200 for a Whirlpool motor.
