Bosch 1200 washing machine

[photopro]

You seem to be a well informed bunch I hope you can solve my problem. My Bosch 1200 washing machine won't spin. It does everything else fine, fills, drains, tumbles - it just would do the spin cycle. I checked the hose and impeller and they are clear, the motor looked fine but I changed the brushes anyway - still no good. Any suggestions where I look next ?
One last question are these machines covered by a one or a two year warranty ?

Thanks - pp

will it drain on its own , ie drain only program

possibly pump jammed , undo the front panel filter cover at the bottom and see what is in there

How can it drain if the pump's jammed

An easy thing to check: are all the wires OK on the multi-plug connector to the motor. It's prone to a lot of vibration.

well i ask the question can it drain
because if not the pump is possibly jammed
a bosch wont spin unless the wash water can drain away

seems pretty simple to understand

and defo the 1st place to start on a bosch

Cakeman - I don't want to get into one of those points scoring threads but I think the OP established that the pump is going in his first post
ie: "It does everything else fine, fills, drains, tumbles .."

Even though I disconnected the block connector to remove the motor a further ger-ger-giggling (Arkwright quote !!) seems to have done the trick. So all's well that spins well.

Thanks for the replies lads.
