# Frigidaire washer motor and drive repair cost

### Why this figure is a from

Two quite different machines wear this one title: a belt and idler on the older designs, a rotor and stator on the newer. The price gap is wide and is quoted before anything comes apart.

### What we will not do

We do not quote a repair over the phone from a description, and we do not publish a final price anywhere on this site. Both are the same rule: the figure that matters is the one measured at your machine, and on this badge — where the same job can meet a two-year-old appliance or a fifteen-year-old one in the same building — a number given before the visit would be a number given before the facts.

What moves this figure

from $245, and the three things that move it

A parts channel as wide as any on this fleet, which holds the floor down

Confirmed on site in writing, and we say when a repair is not worth doing

Belt-driven or direct-drive

The single fact that decides the figure.

Motor or control

A motor that runs one way only is usually the drive board, not the motor.

What the machine is worth

On a fifteen-year-old washer a drive motor approaches the price of a replacement.

### Why is it a from and not a price?

Because the same job is not the same work on two machines. The part, the access and what the appliance has done to itself all move it, and naming a figure before measuring is guessing with extra confidence. The exact cost is confirmed on site, in writing, before anything is opened.

### Is the diagnostic on top of this?

The diagnostic is from $89 and it is credited toward the repair when you go ahead. Where the answer is that the machine is not worth fixing, you have paid for the answer and not for a part.
