    A bad drain pump or clogged filter can also cause the drum not to spin .. and it's a very common issues as well .. should've been added to the 5 top ... the controller would be the last point to check .

    So nothing on UA-cam worked, so I did my own analysis. Looking at the board there were some dirty parts on the components traces. After cleaning it with robbing alcohol.
    It looked like one of the traces leads were rotten off maybe because of moisture or dust.
    I used my phone camera to zoom in 10x times it's a realme xt phone.
    I saw that it's indeed disconnected so I took a small flexible wire. Used fine sand paper on it so the solder would stick to it easily. I also used the sand paper to expose the leads on the circuit board. After cleaning it with alcohol I soldered the wire to the board to make the jumper.
    I also noticed some of the components in the same area looked worn. So I took the heat gun put some soldering paste on the components. And covered any vulnerable plastic components with aluminium foil to help it not get burnt. After I use the heat gun to heat up the components, reflowing them it looked brand new. Plugged it in after and works perfectly.

      Lawrence Monlezun The problem depends on your model. Could be a few things such as a bad Clutch or timer/control board. If you have a direct drive motor with a rotor or stator then could be an issue with them or the sensors that may be attached. Could even be a motor control board too as it monitors speed of motor, but depends upon your model. If you are unsure of what features your model has then try entering your model # on their site & should bring up info related to your unit so you can see what kind of motor etc you have to check.

    Not impressed. His first solution is the belt. But if the machine has been washing rotating the machine back and forth, then the belt isn't broken! Unless it happened to break at some point in the wash cycle. I'd prefer a more step-by-step approach, and start with the most common reason, working on from there. Diagnose, don't just chuck out random answers.

      You do know these videos are just giving you possibilities or general ideas of what is or what makes it function. That's up to you the home owner or technician to figure out.

      Agree, the first thing to check should be door lock, am I right?

      They are trying to sell parts, thus the reason for the random parts replacement repair video.
