Possible Causes
Partially blocked drain pump or hose, Unbalanced load repeatedly aborting high spin, Worn motor brushes (if fitted), Faulty tachometer sensor
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the appliance before accessing the pump or motor.
- Check drain system: Clean the pump filter and ensure the drain hose and standpipe are clear. Poor drainage can prevent high-speed spin.
- Load size and distribution: Avoid overloading and ensure mixed items for better balance. Try a spin-only cycle with a smaller, evenly distributed load.
- Inspect motor brushes: On brushed motors, check and replace worn brushes as needed.
- Test tachometer (qualified persons): Verify tachometer resistance and connection. Replace the motor if the tachometer is faulty.
