  1. I remember the first time I had to test the motor on a Hotpoint washer. I was nervous, but I had to do it. I started by unplugging the washer and removing the back panel. Then, I used a multimeter to check the motor’s resistance. I was relieved to see that it was within the range specified in the manual. Next, I checked the motor’s continuity by connecting the multimeter’s probes to the motor’s terminals. It was a good sign that the multimeter beeped, indicating that the motor was working. Finally, I tested the motor’s capacitance by connecting the probes to the motor’s terminals. The capacitance was within the range specified in the manual, so I knew the motor was working correctly. I was proud of myself for being able to test and diagnose the motor on the Hotpoint washer.
