    Motor/Taco Fault.
    Put this machine on spin and it will whip into spin then cut out. It will try it again a couple more times and then display F02 fault.
    I have a reading through taco and checked all wires from taco/motor to board. No obvious signs on board apart from slight discolouration on track by connector plug from the taco.
    Is the taco coil available as a seperate part?
    Or is this a board fault?

    Any Help Please?

    Thanks

    check output of tacho by spinning motor with meter on tacho terminals

    if this works (if not check tacho coil and magnet )

    trace wires to timer and check again

    this will prove tacho impulses are getting to pcb

    you need to be the tacho pulses are getting to pcb

    by putting a meter on the tacho input to the timer board and spinning motor you can prove this

    Ignore me, I still think of timers as …err timers and PCB’s as PCB’s 😉 8)

    Could be the magnet inside the tacho’s split or badly chipped, or has unscrewed itself so it’s not turning. The tacho/magnet isn’t available separately, I usually find a blown motor and nick them from it.
