Possible Causes

Unbalanced load detection preventing spin, Blocked drain system leaving residual water, Worn motor brushes, Faulty tachometer sensor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before accessing filters or rear panel.

  • Check load distribution: Avoid single heavy items (e.g. one duvet). Redistribute clothes evenly and run an extra spin cycle.
  • Clean pump filter: Open the pump filter and remove debris. Poor drainage can prevent high-speed spin.
  • Check drain hose height: Ensure the drain hose is installed at the correct height (usually 60–100 cm) to prevent siphoning.
  • Inspect motor and tachometer: If the issue persists with all loads, inspect motor brushes and tachometer sensor as described in motor-related faults. Replace worn brushes or faulty tachometer with Bush-compatible parts.
