Have a Frigidaire washing machine.The motor is running fine. Had to replace the belt. The center hub wheel will turn clockwise but will not turn counter clockwise. This is causing belt to burn up. Any help in getting the hub wheel working would be appreciated. Or what is causing the problem

Thanks

It sounds like a locked gearbox or a bad bearing is your problem, but here are some manuals: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8010163/Frigidaire%20Washers.zip

Thanks for reply. Have checked out the manuals. Sounds like will be getting a new machine.

Have a great Xmas and a prosperous and healthy New Year.

Make sure you do not get a front-loading machine and try to get one with the least electronics, like a regular Whirlpool or Kenmore machine.
