The machine will not progress on to the spin cycle. Have checked the output pump and removed stray socks and coins and this part of the machine works fine, just no spin. Thanks

Have you checked the carbon brushes in the motor.

This is quite a common fault the brushes can be removed and replaced they should be no less than 5mm long.
I believe there are instructions to do this in this forum somewhere.

Thanks. When I went to check the brushes one of the connectors was barely touching. A quick fix.
