Sorry, we couldn't find any existing installation instruction that matched.
The Kenmore front-load washing machine was neither tumbling nor spinning
I found a person on youtube that had a similar issue with a Fridgidaire washer. Since my Kenmore was quite similar, I was able to see how the installation would take place. I bought the new motor from Parts Select, and when it arrived, the steps needed to repair the washer was:
1) Unplug the washer
2) Turn off water supply at the wall for hot and cold water
3) Pushed washer away from the wall.
4) Remove the water supply hoses by unscrewing them on the washer end. These were on tight, so I needed to use pliers to unscrew the hoses.
5) I removed the multiple screws on the back panel of the washer. I think there were 12 or 16 screws.
6) Once all the screws on the main panel in back were removed, I removed the back panel and set it aside.
7) I located the motor near the bottom of the tub and removed the two slide-in type electrical connectors. There was also a grounding wire, and I left it attached at this point.
8) Using a socket set, I removed the four screws that mounted the motor to the tub.
9) Once the four screws were removed, I was able to push the old motor back about an inch so the motor was no longer on the sleeves that held it in place, and I pulled the motor toward me. The grounding wire was still connected at this point.
10) Once I was able to get the motor to the back of the washing machine, so I could see it, I could then use a star-screwdriver to remove the grounding wire.
11) Then I went through the same steps backward to install the new motor, which matched the old motor exactly. The time from when I started to when I was completed was about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Washing machine would not spin.
I removed the two screws in the front panel. Visually everything looked good. Luckily there was an envelope with a wiring diagram and a test procedure. A word of caution-the tests require checking voltages of 120 volts AC which can kill you. If you are comfortable with a multimeter and AC, continue reading. You must remove the back panel and hoses to continue. Following the step by step tests, voltage and resistance, the procedure said to replace the motor control board. After replacing the board and a new belt since the old belt looked worn, the washer still didn't spin. I followed the test procedure again and had good readings for all of the steps and the board. This left the motor windings to check. Since I'm not an electrician I wasn't sure how to check the windings but this was the last step so I ordered the motor. The install was straight forward and everything now worked. Total cost was $221.00 for the board and belt plus $275.00 for the motor, $496.00. This is still cheaper than a new machine and a lot less hassle.
