The discussion focuses on wiring the Whirlpool OEM Part #WP8529935 motor as an AC generator. The motor has four main wires: red and brown for the stator, and yellow and gray for the brush wires. For clockwise rotation, connect the brown stator wire to the yellow brush wire and use the red and gray wires for power. For anticlockwise rotation, connect the brown stator wire to the gray brush wire and use the red and yellow wires for power. Proper wiring is essential for achieving the desired motor rotation direction.

Welcome to PF.

I think the motor you are referring to is: Whirlpool OEM Part #WP8529935
I believe they are colloquially known as a "Gentle Annie" motor.
Is this the motor?

Does this make sense?
Whirlpool OEM Part #WP8529935 has four main wires:
red and brown (stator wires) and yellow and gray (brush wires).

For clockwise rotation: Join the brown (stator) wire to the yellow (brush) wire.
Pass the line and neutral power through the red and gray wires.

For anticlockwise rotation: Join the brown (stator) wire to the gray (brush) wire. Pass the line and neutral power through the red and yellow wires.
