Product review (5 stars): Fixes problem with intermittent high speed spin!
This completely stopped the intermittent high speed spin problem. If your Whirlpool washer does high speed spin perfectly when it's empty, and only intermittently with perfectly balanced loads then get this motor and NOT the computer. The issue is that the tachometer on the back of the motor isn't accurately counting the RPMs which means the RPM data that the computer is getting are wrong which causes the intermittent high speed spin. I'm tempted to take apart the old motor just to see if the problem is mechanical, like if the contacts that record the spin speed are not always touching the rotor when it comes around.
