Beko WM5140W Washing machine. Spins & stops

[Latham63]

When wash prog selected machine fills then goes into a brief fast spin & stops.
When spin or drain selected,goes into drain & brief fast spin,then stops.
Have checked motor/tacho,heater,all ok.The pcb looks fine,but I suspect this could be faulty.Have also known motors to check out fine with mega,but in practice don`t work!
Am I missing something?

Unclip the tacho cover and see if the magnet is broken/cracked. If not look towards p.c.b. fault.

Thanks. Magnet is fine,that was my first thought! Looks like new pcb then.

Have since been back to the machine & fitted a new pcb.No change!
Checked motor again & found tacho coil o/c! This tested fine initialy.Found wire at junction of tacho coil split internaly.Giving potentialy intermittent/false reading!
