Hi all

My Machine goes through its program but the Drum motor does not run and there are no error messages

Cheers

Is this a washer/dryer? Please post the PNC number on the door sticker so we have a little more to go on. On this machine only 4 alarm conditions are seen by the user; these are problems with filling, draining, door open, & communication/configuration issues. I suspect you have a motor problem (worn brushes or broken belt), worn brushes are a likely candidate if the machine is older than 3 or 4 years. With motor issues the timer is likely to function correctly & count down. To read the last alarm condition would require entering the diagnostics program. Before confusing you with this I suggest you remove the rear half of the outer casing & take a peek at the motor brushes & drive belt. If you need instructions to do this please post again.

I have found the brushes Very Very low and have replaced which did not work I have now checked the main pcb and it has burnt out have checked the windings on motor and the resistance is 0.05ohms so it looks like the motor took the card out, so for the cost of a new motor and a new pcb it going to be cheaper to buy a new machine.

Cheers for you advice anyway
