Use an ohmmeter across all the windings, they should be a few ohms (my washer is 2.3 to 2.7 ohms). There is probably a service manual inside the front, bottom panel that will give you the exact range for your motor and that also gives you the pin definition of the connector so you know what pins the different windings attach to.
