Hotpoint WT741G error code F-02

[boldi]

Hi,
I have just started getting the error code f-02 which i believe means motor jammed/tacho generator.
I have had a look at the motor and this seems to be ok, also looked at the tacho and that was in place and no detatched wire etc.

It seems to get to the spin cycle then i get the error code.

The drum turns on the wash cycle ok,

could it have lost its program?

thanks boldi

Finally got the right section sorry Mods

Check the motor brushes are not worn down.

I know it's an old post but i thought this might help .

I had a F-02 error code on my Hotpoint HV7F140 the coil/tacho all seemed ok but I double checked the new brushes that I put in 2-3 weeks ago and one of the brushes was stuck in its case, I sprung it back out and now the drum is turning and the cycle completed.
