Any appliance wrenchers on here?

10 year old front loader GE WSXH208A1WW which appears to be also sold by Frigidaire and Kenmore. Motor isn't working.

I pop the back cover off and motor turns freely, belt looks good. There is a control board for the motor speed in the bottom of the machine. It has a fuse - I go pop the fuse out and measure it for continuity- checks out. Pop it back in. Turn machine back on to see if I can pick up some voltage on connectors and the control unit. Now the motor runs again as if nothing happened ...

I go let it run its program and shove it back in the corner. Aside from moving it I also shove the dial back in (turning it off). When I turn it back on - motor not moving again ...

What can I check? What do you think it is? I am thinking intermittent in the motor control board.

It may be time for a new machine? 10 years is a decent run. The new board is $170 - and only good if it fixes the problem ...
