A matching dryer (model # DDA-62), ..... that I have for my matching WDA-62 washer, has a motor that is toast. I started the restoration process of the dryer and during disassembly I found that the original motor looked to be in great condition. After popping the end cap to inspect the start switch, I found a crispy start winding. Ohming out the windings, found the start winding to be totally burnt open.
If you guys remember, I did a full concourses restoration to the matching WDA-62 washer and now I'm dead in the water with the dryer.
Does anyone have a M7301 OR C1411 dryer motor? I am betting the motors were basically the same across several years from probably '60 - '64 ..... except for the filtrator models, where the book shows a different HP for this model motor. But would probably work as well.
FYI, the M7301 is the burnt original. The C1411 mentioned is a motor in my DIA-62 dryer and is identical. This is why I am assuming most any motor out of an early 60's Frigidaire dryer would work.
Any help greatly appreciated! Please look in your parts stashes and see if you have something similar,

Here's the thread showing the washer restoration and final product. Was hoping to have a "working" matching dryer to go with it!!
