Washing Machine won't spin

Wal1

Hi my machine stopped mid wash, it drained but won't spin. I checked the filter and it's clear. Would appreciate any suggestions?

Could be a broken belt, can you hear the motor revolving?

Brushes on the motor could be gone.Does it rotate at all if you select another wash?

Wal1

Thanks for reply.... No the drum isn't rotating but it does fill !?

Wal1

The motor isn't revolving it sounds like it has stalled, for want of another word..

.G.

If its belt drive then the belt could be broken.If its not belt drive then the brushes on the motor most likely need replacing.

Wal1

Ok thanks for ur reply.

Its not on a rinse hold function by any chance?

If the brushes are gone you'll hear it humming at the point the drum is supposed to be rotating. Depending on the model,the brushes can be easy enough to replace and they aren't expensive,google for brushes for your machine model number.

Ya it's humming alright, I'll get someone to look at it anyway, although it's over 7yrs old so not sure would it be worth it... Thanks again guys.

Hi Superg
You were correct, the brushes were gone....
