Wasking machine spinning too fast

[Davey]

Can anyone help me with this please? Our four year old Servis M3010 washing machine has started playing up this weekend.

During the wash cycle the machine should turn slowly in one direction and then the other to agitate the clothes. However it has started turning at the spin speed - some 1000rpm - during the wash cycle. This occurs with a full or part load so I dont think that incorrect loading is the problem.

Everything else seems okay as the machine does the full wash cycle, clicks from one program to the next and does the final spin at the correct speed.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

if it were a hotpoint i could tell you.

it would be either the spin control magnet (on the motor)

or the motor control board

If i were you i would call a Servis engineer
