Kenmore elite washer LE error, stator issue.

79641073.311  model

The bearing and drum spins freely.

Sears parts department sent twice same stator which has a sensor attached to it and the connector is same by size but 2 of 3 prongs on both edges of the connector do not fit. The one prong in the middle looking like a phone jack is same as on my stator. Sears schematic parts diagram shows the correct parts without a sensor and without a harness but keep sending me wrong stator they even even do not list on their website. I asked them for dis discrepancy to N.A. They stated the model of the washer fits the part they sent me even-though the connector will not fit and has a sensor my stator has not neither the harness for it.  They sent twice Stator 4417EA1002Z matching by model number of the washer but not in reality physically. I measured resistance of old stator between all 3 prongs showing 11 Ohms. New stator shows same resistance. I could force push-in the connector into the new stator but who knows, winding difference......... I don't want to go that that way. I found a same stator on a web which has no sensor and has same connector but by crossing it doesn't fit my model according to website. Really confusing and cornered like a rat.

Picture shows a connector which will take the stator they sent but my connector has aforementioned difference. 

Thanks in advance.

LE is a locked rotor check the hall sensor

Thanks for the info. Since I started testing the function, I watched if I get some movement or at least a twitch of the rotor to N.A. which is also indication of not getting power at all but search engine points frequently just to a new stator replacement. My model has no sensor but I guess the sears stator they sent me with sensor I can just remove. I got finally a tech service manual yesterday which points the issue to a wiring or a connectors between stator and the ECM, could be also soldering pins on the ECM

My old stator has 11 ohms all 3 winding between each other. I can see a winding differences in color between certain coils - like lighter/darker colors, nothing burnt. Your help is expending my knowledge about these types of washers I don't get to frequently but looking for it cause I like troubles. Old stator maybe still good and the search engine lours me to get new stator disregarding facts that other issues are possible. Forum like this is very helpful plus service manual .

Little update; the harness from stator to ECM is in great shape and by conductivity. Wiggle and tap test also to the ECM didn't show anything. I turned it on for self test, without water- 1st test went fine/pump or solenoids, second test for spin triggered little jolt to the rotor but stopped and display went dark. Tried to turn it ON, Reset and nothing so I found the main bigger fuse on ECM board got blown. I think the ECM saw some issue with the circuit and didn't allow to spin the motor when washing but I forced it by the test to come ON which resulted the blown fuse. Service manual states if every other test is good then the ECM is toast.  Waiting now for used ECM to see if I can prevail.

you can solder a fuse holder and add either slow blow or fast blow fuses

Yes, exactly... Thanks.
