    Hi, I have a Hoover HNF6167 that works fine except during the spin cycle,the pump drains but the drum does not spin.

    please help as I cannot afford a new washing machine.

    Check the carbon brushes in the motor

    ok, now things are getting confusing.
    After taking the motor off to check the brushes and reassembling, then pushing every connector just in case of loose connection. I did a test wash and everything worked perfectly.

    HURRAH!

    NOPE!!!!!!

    did a second wash and the problem returned.

    This may seem a stupid question but where is the heater on the washing machine?

    Thanks for the advice guys

    You say the brushes are ok…how long are they..? Can you post a pictue of them…
    Seems strange that it worked ok after you removed/replaced them

    ok, another update.

    I have tried different programs to see what would happen.

    the washer goes through the sequence, fill, wash but when uit comes to drain/spin it makes a knocking sound from where the drain pump is, it still drains but no spin.

    on some occasions the drum attempts to turn but you then hear the solenoid click off so no spin.

    I am now starting to pull my hair out on this

    Re: hoover hnf6167 not spinning

    Could be either a obstruction in pump, which is slowing down the drain times, therefore it causes a timeout on the spin cycle… So check for blockages in pump and also in hose end that goes in to the waste outlet… Would suggest removing outlet hose from sink connector and observing flow of water is good…

    Get back to us
