Hi wonder if anyone can help. When you select a cycle then close the door the machine primes with water as normal. After a few seconds you can usually hear the motor pumping the water but now it just makes a quiet buzz & nothing happens. No error codes are showing ? Help

Could be the carbon brushes on the motor need replacing, how long have you had it?
Its about 3 years old.
You ever had the brushes done before?
If not it could be that they need replacing. You can buy them to suit online, normally around £10-£15.
How are you at diy? You could take off the cover for the washer locate the motor and check first, you'll normally see bits of carbon and dust in the motor. You can also remove them and have a look its pretty simple to do but can be a bit fiddly. There's plenty of video's online showing how to do it for each manufacturer.

Cheers for the response. Yeam im a pretty competent DIYer. Are the motors usually located to the rear of the machine or could i possibly gain access without moving the machine ?
depending on the make and model they could be located at the top or bottom, normally there's a access point look for screws rather than rivets and normally that where it will be. For example: The top of my hotpoint just slides off after removing 3 screws holding it in place
Sry Gav, Rocks is right, having read back to the title rather than your 1st post saying 'machine'. I just assumed it was a washing 'machine' rather than a dishwasher.

How do you unjam it?
Sorry - it is a BDW13. My machine fills, then starts a very feint humming, but nothing else. On a rinse wash, after 7minutes (the time the manual says it should take), it empties, peep peeps to say it has finished - but nothing has happened - the plates are dry.
Any help gratefully receoved!
