    Hi there

    I have hardly used this machine and presume the motor has packed in. Someone checked it and said there is power to it. I took it out and fiddled with the connections (u never know) and the carbon brushes look long and not worn down. Is there anywhere I can exchange the motor rather than forking out for a whole new one? or at least get it tested. Everything else seems to go through the motions just not washing the clothes or spinning or even an attempt or smoke or anything. Is ther anything else I can check before spending stiupid money on a motor?

    Hi seeker,

    Have you had a look at the motor control module – check the connector plugs for signs of burning,

    Pull the plug out first! :plug:

    Hi there

    Um where would I find the motor control module? Is that the red connector on the side or something away from the motor? Sorry new to all this game!

    Thanks

    It’s an electronic device away from the motor Jackie.

    We can’t give specific instructions on how to go about DIY repairs due to EU legislation only some general guidence 😀

    If your unsure, I would ask an engineer to check for you.

    😕 My Indesit WG820 has the same problem. the engineer said it might be the motor packing up. Wanted to take it away, and test in his workshop. No doubt to ring me back and suggest it was the motor and did I want it back!

    Then he gets to keep the machine for spares hmmmm.
