Washer motor hums loudly when a cycle is selected but the drum never begins to move — classic sign of a failed run capacitor unable to provide startup torque.
Drum fills with water and the machine powers on, but the agitator never moves during the wash cycle.
After the wash cycle the drum fails to spin up to speed, leaving clothes soaking wet at the end.
Control board displays F7E1 (motor speed sensing fault) due to the motor failing to reach target RPM because the capacitor cannot deliver sufficient start current.
Drum spins but never reaches full speed on any cycle, resulting in poor water extraction and excessively damp laundry.
💡 Pro Tip: How to Tell If Your Washer Capacitor Has Failed
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Washer hums loudly but drum won't start agitating or spinning
⚠️ F7E1 error code displayed on the control panel
⚠️ Motor runs but drum rotation is sluggish or completely absent
⚠️ Washer starts intermittently — works sometimes, fails other times
🔬 DIY Test: With the washer unplugged, remove the drive belt and spin the motor pulley by hand. If it rotates freely, discharge the capacitor and test it with a multimeter set to capacitance mode — a healthy W11395618 reads 50µF. A reading significantly below 45µF confirms replacement is needed.
