Electrolux 131715801 Motor Shield Assembly

Product Description

The ELECTROLUX 131715801 is a motor shield assembly that includes a capacitor, designed for use in residential laundry equipment. This assembly serves as a protective housing for the drive motor while integrating the run capacitor needed for motor startup and operation. The combination of shield and capacitor in a single assembly simplifies replacement and ensures proper component pairing. Licensed appliance technicians and experienced service professionals typically handle this repair. It is a direct OEM-sourced replacement part intended to restore original performance in compatible dryer or washer applications.

This assembly is suited for residential laundry units where the motor shield and run capacitor must be replaced together as a unit. It is commonly installed when the motor has failed to start due to a faulty capacitor, or when physical damage to the motor shield has occurred. The integrated design reduces diagnostic guesswork by replacing both components simultaneously, which is standard practice when motor-related service calls require full assembly replacement rather than component-level repair.

Key Features

• Includes motor shield and run capacitor in a single replacement assembly
• OEM part number ensures proper fit and function in compatible ELECTROLUX laundry units
• Integrated capacitor eliminates the need to source a separate run capacitor during repair
• Direct replacement design supports efficient service call completion

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement motor shield assembly for compatible ELECTROLUX residential laundry equipment. Refer to the equipment service manual or parts diagram to confirm fitment before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified appliance service technician. Disconnect power to the unit at the breaker or by unplugging before beginning any disassembly. Capacitors can retain an electrical charge even after power is removed — discharge the capacitor safely before handling. Follow the manufacturer service manual for disassembly sequence and torque guidance specific to the unit model.
