Bosch Classixx 1200 express Maxx (WF02466gb/07) spin issue

Hi Everyone,

As the title i have a Bosch Classixx 1200 express Maxx (WF02466gb/07) and the drum will not spin under power. The drum spins fine when i move it by hand but the wash and spin cycles do not have the drum turning.

I can hear what i think is the motor powering up but it sounds like its stuck or doesn’t have the power to start the drum. If that makes sense. I had an old woodturing lathe that made a similar noise and i ad to manually turn the motor before it would kick in.

Everything else about the machine seems fine. It fills and drains ok.

I have run a 90 degree wash with it empty as i read that may help but it is still the same.

I’m hoping it is some sort of replaceable motor issue. I’m pretty handy at fixing things i just have no idea where to start. I cannot find an instruction manual.

I am getting married in 5 months so i really just want to keep this going if i can rather than having to buy a new one.

What are you thoughts on whats wrong and any advice on taking it apart as i’m guessing the back needs to come off.

Thanks

Buzz
