Help…………please
I have the above model, washes well, nice and quiet…..but its now decided not too spin 🙁
No fault codes or anything obvious showing, everything looks ‘normal’ its just goes slowly round and round til it finishes its cycle. I have tried putting it on other cycles and a just spin, to no avail. Is it dead????? is it going to cost a fortune to repair?????????????
Please help 🙂
Re: Hotpoint WMD960 not spinning
Well after dragging the dripping washing out and chucking it on the line, I thought I’d give it one more try (empty) and blow me it worked 😕
I’d also read somewhere that it may have a blockage somewhere, so I stood by the drain while it pumped out, and it smelt of bad eggs 😳 …………The drain was only hosed and bleached this morning, so I’m guessing there’s a blockage somewhere?????
But the question is where do I start looking?
For ‘I’ I mean husband 😆
I really hope thats all it is……………fingers (and everything else crossed)
Re: Hotpoint WMD960 not spinning
It could just be a simple OOB ( out of balance ) fault.
If the motor is running on wash then in most cases it will spin as well.
If the machine senses an out of balance load it will prevent the machine from spinning.
The bad egg smell is caused by using liquids and washing everything at low temperatures.
Have a read of this. 😉
