Hi
Had some fun with this. Has been banging about, to the extent now where it has unclipped a suspension spring twice. Seems to want to go to full spin sometimes in the wash program. assume the out of balance stops this but it really goes some. Will run fine for maybe an hour, or maybe a few days, then it starts again. seems worse with towels, sometimes does, sometimes doesn't.
Had a few washers apart in the past so reasonably good. All usual stuff is OK, yes bearings are good, drains clear, pump fine etc.
This AEG is the basic non led display type, so suspect at this is basically a Zanussi/Tricity Bendix, it is fitted with the LEM type motor, so the tacho is suspect ? It has the same motor and two yellow wire coil I've seen on other websites. They suggest tacho loose, or magnet loose.
I took the motor off and notice I could wiggle the coil about 2mm, so I gently prised off the endcap took the coil out inspected everything visually and it all seems fine. When assembling it all, I've pushed the endcap on firmly and hey no movement in the coil. Could this really be the problem, or am I just dreaming ! Of course got to try it, but wondered.
Presumably if the tacho had failed I would get a continous spin or no spin situation.
Thanks in advance for help
