Amica Poor Spin Performance

Clothes come out very wet; spin seems weak or incomplete

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Unbalanced loads repeatedly cancelling high spin, Clogged pump reducing drainage, Incorrect spin speed selected, Worn motor brushes (if fitted)

Safety first: Unplug the appliance before internal checks.

Program settings: Verify that a high spin speed is selected and that options like 'Delicate' or 'No Spin' are not active.
Load distribution: Avoid single heavy items; add more items to balance the drum.
Check drainage: Ensure the pump filter and hose are clear so water can be fully removed before spin.
Inspect motor brushes: If the machine struggles to reach full speed, check and replace worn brushes on brushed motors.
