As a Miele technician for 30 years I can tell you guys that these motors are 30 years old and the Identical motors are still made and used in the Miele machines made today, I have never seen bearing failure but I have seen the amatures fail from being worn down to a nub.... These motors are SUPER reliable.. I have gone to many of these machines for service and have replaced motor brushes up to 3 times on the same machine over a 20 to 30 year life of the machine.

After having a motor exactly like this on the shelf for more than 15 years, today I managed to make it run thanks to your very instructive video. Thanks.

I've had 3 Miele washing machine motors sitting in my shed gathering dust because I didn't understand the wiring layout. As a complete novice I watched this video and 2hrs later I now have 3 working motors and from tomorrow I'll be making a wire wheel polisher I've been wanting for a longtime. Thank you for taking the time to record, edit, upload and share this video. You deserve all the hits you've had and more. Best wishes and thank you again 👍🍀😁

I am an EE, and I must congratulate you on your clarity of explanation.
Anybody, who has no prior knowledge of these motors who pays attention, should walk away from this video, at least roughly, understanding how the work.
A clear and concise explanation is a rare thing these days! Well done !

I found your videos after looking up how motors work for building an instrument, and despite coming out still not really understanding because I'm quite dim, I still watched the rest of them. You're clearly a great teacher, even if this student isn't the best learner. Good stuff, P.A.I.

Love how thoroughly you explain everything! Keep up the great videos!

Now that is what I call a good teacher. Just watching the video make me feel like an expert. Old and wise enough not to act on that feeling, but thanks a lot.

Good Lord! Bought myself an old washing machine motor and stumbled upon this channel. This is all new to me - in fact: I have not the faintest clue with regard to motors, but I think I have come to just the right place here. That leads to a *new subscriber* .

The best video ever.
I can tell you spent a lot of time studying these and preparing this video. Good job, it's very informative and i'll be sure to use this as reference if I ever get to work on such motors!

[Blurko]

I agree with all those who wrote that this is the best video on this item !!!
Thank you very much for your time and effort !!!
God blesses you !!!

Truly excellent video! I came looking for basic information to diagnose my washing machine motor and I went away with a well rounded education on the subject... Clarity, thoroughness and excellent presentation skills/style. Thank you for this very helpful and excellent work.

Excellent video! I loved the experiments you applied here to show how the motor works. Keep up the great work. Thank you.
