Thank you for the information on the logic board I guess my next step would be to remove to motor assembly and check it over for any broken connections or lose solders. If that does not help then I will will have to fork up the cash for new motor. Thanks again.

Your welcome thats what were here for.What happens is the logic board shorts out and keeps the motor running after shutting it off.You might be able to do better internet ordering the motor verus buying it at a auto parts store for price wise.
