6) Pulsator doesn’t rotate normally.

How to repair & settle
Pulsator rotates al one direction
1. The Pulsator rotates normally at the
beginning of wash cycle, but is it not
rotate at clockwise direction (locked)
after some wash cycles though there is
motor-working sound?
2. In the case the pulsator doesn’t rotates
either clockwise or counterclockwise
from the beginning of wash cycle:
1) Check resistance of the wash motor if
there is no motor-working sound.
2) Check belt tension & whether the clutch
rotates normally if there is motor-
working sound.
3. The pulsator doesn’t rotate at both
directions.
1) Check whether motor rotates at both
directions if there is motorworking sound
when it’s energized.
2) Check resistance of the motor if there is
no motor-working sound.
Clockwise rotation
locked.
Resistance is normal.
V-belt is loose.
Clutch locked.
Motor rotates at both
directions.
Motor doesn’t rotates
at both directions.
∞ Ω
Normal resistance.
Unusual operation.
Defect of controller or
poor contact of
connectors of motor
leads.
Loose the belt.
Defect of the clutch.
Loose the belt.
The plusator locked.
Defect of the clutch.
Defect of the capacitor.
(check the capacitor’s
capacitance)
Defect of the motor.
Motor coil is open.
Contact defect of the
leads.
Turn the power off and on
again then that symptom
disappears.
Explain “Don’t run wash
only continuously”.
Change the controller if
there are no contact defects
in the leads of the motor.
Adjust belt tension by
changing motor fixing
location and change the belt
if it is impossible to adjust
belt tension.
Change the clutch if the
clutch pulley is locked when
making it rotated clockwise
and counterclockwise by
hand.
clutch pulley is locked when
making it rotated clockwise
and counterclockwise by
hand.
Adjust belt tension or
change the belt if it is
impossible to adjust.
Remove cause locking the
pulsator
Change the clutch.
Change the motor if the
motor is locked when
having its shaft rotated by
hand.
Change the capacitor if
there is no contact defect in
capacitor’s lead
