Washing Machine Help Forum

Thanks, so guess I need to change the brushes, as none of the other programs work.

Chris

Well, changed the brushes and it worked straight away with a bit of whistling, but guess that was the bushes bedding in. Has worked perfectly for the last 3 weeks since I changed them - until today! Machine stopped at rinse+spin cycle and shown door open as before and the only program that worked was the drain. Put it on drain so I could get the door open; spun the drum around a couple of times and it sounds ok. Closed the door and put it on rinse+spin cycle - hey presto it works again! - but I wonder for how long? So far in a few weeks I've changed the drum bearings and then the motor bushes - am I getting a strong hint to get a new machine!?

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Chris

Also! - whilst the machine still runs full cycle, albeit with intermittant glitches when it gets to spin, the spin is now accompanied with a sound like tube train rumble; I've had the back off whilst running and the noise is coming from the motor (brushes end I think) - but then stops at the end of the spin cycle as the power is cut and them/c slows down On occassions after the cycle is complete, we take the washing out and the LCD screen flashes FH at us Is all this looking like motor problems or the controller? - either way we are tempted to get a new m/c before the next major breakdown.

Regards,

Chris
