    hi all i have a bosch wft2800.

    now i put a rather large load in and now it has stopped working, it doesnt spin anymore and when i put load in it spun really slow but i didnt realse so im presuming i burnt out a motor or something, it puts water in fine etc just doesnt spin

    so any ideas or help on what i can do would be great

    many thanks

    Hi
    With unit un-plugged, I would be checking those carbon brushes 😉
    This is easier said than done on this motor though 😕 The motor will have to be taken apart 😯 to gain access to the brush assembly.
    Original brushes module is 496876 but depending how nifty you are with a soldering iron you could use BS12102 which is the cheaper but more trickier solution. Both are available from spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk
    If you feel this is more of a task than you need then feel free to find a qualified engineer in your area from the link below 🙂

    Hard to say. Module may have been damaged with original fault, or motor damaged by original fault. 😕
