    Any advice on tracing spin problem on WMA31 machine greatly appreciated
    Machine appears to run through various cycles normally with exception that it fails to spin (slow or fast) on any of the cycles requiring that function.
    Any ideas where to start looking?

    There could be several reasons, first make sure that you do not have an unbalanced load, will the machine spin when it is empty? Set it to spin and wait at least 3 or four minutes to be certain.

    If you are certain that you are loading correctly, then if the motor is washing the fault could be a failure of the control module or the pressure switch system. Not easy to self diagnose without proper experience.

    Very many thanks to ‘iadom’ (Oldham/Rochdale area) for the timely feedback. Problem was, indeed, due to unbalanced load (one very heavily soaked) – never before experienced. Thanks again for prompt assistance.
