Great video to help thankiyou very much
Thank YOU so much for watching #HowToBloke 👍 Glad you've got it sorted! 😀
Thankiyou so much very apricieted..I checked my washing machine motor is not working..I am going to by new one..
Great - sved my wife buying another machine (she does nto give me much time to repair things). When I saw the video I thought "roken wire, not much chance of that" - until I saw the broken wire on my machine - broke at a plug - clearly the wire had been damaged whhen the machine was made as the insulation was clean cut. So I also cleaned the motor as best I could (this cheap junk doesn't come apart) checked brishes and back workign again. Thanks for this videao, I had seen some others but they didn't go into detaila and were more about buying a whole motor or a board, so I wonder how many people buy a part only to find it does not work because of a broken wire?
Glad you fixed it yourself and thanks for watching #HowToBloke 👍
très bien 👍🏻
Merci bien 👍
great vid, did you have to replace the wiring loom as a hole? how to did you replace the wires? did you have to follow it all the way down to where ever it comes out, also any soldering?
The wire was made of solid iron not strands and had snapped inside its own insulation. I didn't need to test the whole loom. I fixed the wire with a simple plastic electric block connector (looks a bit like a lego brick) and insulating tape but perhaps I should have soldered it. That same wire broke again, months later, in much the same place. Thanks for watching #HowToBloke 👍
Machine did not finish the wash one of the brushes was complexly worn would it at least not hum or spark? My drain pump turns on.
Maybe, maybe not. Mine did make an unusual fizzing whining noise for just 5 minutes or so, then it simply stopped during a wash. Have a look at my video sequel about brushes here ua-cam.com/video/g7KCNczFyRI/v-deo.html Thanks for watching #HowToBloke 👍
Very good video..I have the same issue..but when selected spin it turns..so I'm bit.confused..
Thanks for watching #HowToBloke 👍 If that same issue happened to me, what I would try is to completely disconnect my washing machine from the electricity supply and leave it overnight. Then, the following morning, try again, and use a completely different washing program.
I have the same issue..spin mode working drum rotating but rapid 15 not working
Hey mate my washing machines drum only spins forwards and backwards slightly when pushing with my hands but won't spin any other time, was yours the same?
On my washing machine, with the power switched off and the front-loading door open, I could still rotate my drum 360 degrees forwards or backwards manually (for example; as one might do after a wash had finished to double-check for small garments that might still be left in the drum). But when my washing machine was switched on with the front-loading door closed and a washing program started, the drum wouldn't turn at all regardless of which washing program I had chosen.
What if you have these exact symptoms and a brushless motor?
Apparently, brushless motors offer greater reliability because they have less moving parts, so if I had the exact same symptoms and a brushless motor I would still be looking for a broken/detached cable in the first instance. Thanks for watching #HowToBloke 👍
So all it took was some brushing and it worked ok?
The carbon brushes were ok, still usable with plenty of meat still left on them. This is what really caused the issue ua-cam.com/video/FoRJKxmkcrc/v-deo.html
and this short video when the same fault happened (again; on the same washing machine) ua-cam.com/video/UjUFALD84wM/v-deo.html Thanks for watching #HowToBloke 👍
Nice video but you forgot to sand the rotor with sand paper mate
Great point, but the copper surface of the commutator wasn't scorched, scored or pitted, so I didn't bother. Thanks for watching #HowToBloke 👍
Camara pls focus on the machine
Update! This shows the actual wire that I found broken because on 5th May 2022 it happened again! So I had to repair that same wire AGAIN! 😂 ua-cam.com/users/shortsUjUFALD84wM
