[suds14]

Hi

Does anyone have a motor or know if any are still available for a 1969 Whirlpool washer model number model#LTA5605E0 serial#02699 5849.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Presuming the motor is a 2-speed round GE? I have a round Emerson from 1971 that i could dig up and check if you cannot something closer.

It is a 2 speed motor.

Any two speed whirlpool belt drive washer motor will work on this model whirlpool, so you can use any motor from 1956 through 1986 on this washer that was used in a whirlpool or Kenmore belt drive machine.

So it shouldn’t be too hard to find a motor for this washer.

That motor absolutely WILL NOT work for your LTA5605E0. It's for the mechanical design known as VMW (vertical modular washer) introduced new in 2010.

VMW replaced the direct-drive design which was introduced in 1981 and ended in 2010/12.

The belt-drive design of your LTA5605 dates much older and ended in 1986/87.
