Hotpoint starts then stops

rrog · 9 Nov 2005

I have a Hotpoint ultima WMA62N-HED. The problem is as soon as the drum starts to turn the motor cuts out.This happens with or without a load.it emptys of water, the brushes have checked out ok.Any ideas please,Ive looked at many forums but havn't seen this problem.

Have a look at the tacho magnet. This is a small round magnet on the back end of the motor. It may have broken or come loose.
