Washer-dryer stops or will not start spin; E06 displayed; may not reach high spin speed

Safety: Unplug the machine before accessing the motor. Beware of sharp cabinet edges.

• Access motor: Remove the rear panel. Release the drive belt from the motor pulley and drum pulley.
• Inspect wiring: Check the motor connector and wiring harness for damage, burning, or loose pins. Reseat the connector firmly.
• Check tachometer: On Hoover motors, the tachometer is usually a small coil at the rear of the motor. Inspect for cracks or a loose magnet ring on the shaft.
• Test tach coil: Measure resistance across the tachometer terminals (often 100–200 Ω). An open circuit indicates a failed tach coil.
• Spin test: With the motor removed and a multimeter set to AC volts across the tach terminals, manually spin the motor shaft. You should see a small AC voltage generated. No output suggests a tach fault.
• Replace motor if needed: If the tachometer is integrated and faulty, replace the complete motor assembly.
• PCB diagnosis: If motor and tach test OK, the motor control section of the PCB may be defective. This is a complex repair best handled by a Hoover service technician.
