What are spiders made of?

Reported Issue:
One washer has drum problems, one dryer doesn't heat.
Image of Issue:


Appliance Information:
Manufacturer: Alliance / Speedqueen
Appliance Type: Washer , Dryer
Model Number: STEBCFSP172TW01
Manufacture Date: 8/1/2013



Diagnosis:
Washer has broken drum spider support and bearings and the dryer requires a new heater assembly and belt rollers and idler pulley.
What are front loader washer spiders made of? All manufacturers seem to use the same material. They all disintegrate into gross clumpy bits! It looks like some sort of cast aluminum. Why would they make them of a material that disintegrates in water?

Model Number: 11025132411

Diagnosis:
Tested machine in diagnostic mode and the pump worked. The agitate worked the spin worked and the lid did lock and it let in hot and cold water. Tilted machine up and saw that the cage to protect the pulley was blackened from some kind of pressure due to cookie sheet being left under the machine. Very strange

Stator Motor has Dramatic Death Scene

I diagnosed this washer as needing a new transmission and washplate over a year ago, but the customer opted for just the new wash plate and to run it till it died. Well, it died just recently and to hear the customer tell it it was quite the dramatic death scene. They said it started smoking and then blew the breaker and then sparked when they reset it!

It looks like the main tub seal gave out and water leaked down onto the stator motor which shorted out and burnt out wiring.

It’s a Kenmore but it’s made by Whirlpool, you can always tell by the first three digits of the model number, 110 means it was built by Whirlpool for Kenmore.
