How hard would it be to convert to 240v

[ozzie908]

A whirlpool duet washer I already have an older version and have been looking out for a replacement motor as the bearings have gone it makes a hell of a din when spinning...lol
So what I want to know is what would have to be done to use 240v like the other one or is it impossible??

Fingers crossed in anticipation )

Are you sure it is the motor bearings that are making the noise and not the tub bearings?

Yes its defo the motor

I took the belt off and the drums as quiet as when it was new the motor on the other hand lol

I will consider swapping the motor if I can find an equivalent one.
