The agitator has no turning power to speak of, and I can turn it left and right by hand with no effort at all, and even while it is washing, any idea's it is also making a nois and smells like something burning or melting. Thank you. [email protected] [email protected] 630-460-2095 (Fred)
SOURCE: Funky smell from working Whirlpool Ultimate Care II
ive experienced a smell, somewhat electrical in nature. when the motor is over worked,, restricted incoming power supply, or simply a fluky one time issue and never repeated again.. generally the motor overheats and trips off on overload, shuts off temporarilly and then restarts with no sign of problem.i guess it would be possible that perhaps theres something stuck between the tubs and at high speed spin causes friction against the tubs causing a smell, but not likely cause that usually heard, or prevents unit from spinning at all. other then checking your incoming power supply for at least 110v. probably not much else to look into. Obviously its not my house, and if it was to happen again or with any sorta frequency, call someone in to look at.

Sounds like a failure in the gear case but the burning smell makes me wonder if you have a problem with the motor. You will need a appliance tech to verify

HI, the motor is failing slowly and, i recommend replacing this damaged motor asap before it starts to over heat and present a fire hazard.
