Perfect replacement motor for Whirlpool Cabrio dryer (WED5600XW0)
Bought to replace the motor (part number AP3094233) on my Whirlpool Cabrio WED5600XW0. Expected wiring instructions from the description given by others. No instructions were included. Luckily there was no wiring to be done (which is probably why they didn't include any instructions).Removed connected wires (one big harness and two smaller wire connections) to old motor.Removed old motor.Installed new motor.Connected big wiring harness and two smaller wires exactly as they were on the old motor.Installed new rollers, belt and idler pully while I was in there (all in one kit found elsewhere on Amazon), put dryer back together, moved back into laundry room, plugged in, and Bob's your uncle.Works like a charm. Couldn't be more pleased. Okay, maybe if YOU came over and did all this for me I'd be happier, but like you're just reading this so that wasn't going to happen.

Easy to install and quieter than the last motor
Easy to install (once I looked up a video explaining it). It works great and is quieter than the last motor.

Great price
You need to specify wiring more detail. A black and white photo was not enough. Spend hours on you tube to find correct connections.

Good motor
I would have giving it a 5 star but the picture on amazon ad didn’t match the actual motor. The wires for the pulley tension switch is different from the original. But the good thing they provided a pic diagram to help with correct installation. Motor works great.

100% approval rating
Tried replacing all small parts such as thermostat and thermal fuse but it all came down to the motor. Once I got the old motor off it literally took five minutes to mount the new motor, attach the belt and blower wheel and re-screw everything. Runs like a brand new dryer now.

Still Drying.
Motor was really easy to install (installed it in 8 minutes). I think you could have gave a visual diagram for installing the belt switch to help people that might not quite deal with wiring too much. I highly recommend this product and hope that it last 15 years like the old motor.

Buy Quality Now or pay more later!!!
I read the negative reviews and STILL bought it. After figuring out the Cookey wiring diagram I finally got ut installed. Worked great. Ran quiet. Was a happy camper. Almost got 7 months out of it before it burned out. Head the warnings and do NOT buy this garbage. Poney up the extra cash for the American made or just go buy a new washer. At $76.00 + tax i honestly would of been satisfied with 3 or 4 years of use. I know I was buying an inferior asian made knock off and I definitely did not expect 20 plus years like the OEM motor but these units are failing after a few months. Shame on Amazon for allowing this scam to operate in their platform.
