beko wmc61 motor values

[shaun67]

Hi does anyone have any info regarding this brush motor i.e ohms values or other info , it’s got 8 pins on the connector block .. Just wanna see if it’s in tolerance when measuring resistance ?

made by arcelik number on back says 2824730100 ..

Thanks in advance

Re: beko wmc61 motor values

Have got a five year old Beko motor out in shed somewhere. Could hoik it out and have a look for you perhaps over the weekend.
But TBH it would be more help if you just told us about the fault on the machine. Washing machine brush motors for the most part have a very low resistance through the field coil(s)(say 1 to 3 ohms) and a slightly higher resistance through the brush gear (say 2 to 6 ohms). The tacho coil can be anything from 10 ohms to 1600+ ohms depending on make and model. With all of it, they are very rarely “out” IME. It’s either yae or nae. And sometimes it can be yae but there’s a leakage to earth – usually via the armature. Tacho – if it’s not open circuit and it gives a volt or two when you spin the motor by hand, then it’s near certainly OK.
HTH,
Mike.

Hi Mike ,

Thanks for the reply….Nephew called round while i was out and told our lass that his missus put w/m on, it worked for a bit then stopped but sounded sluggish when working ( his words ) said he got it to drain then took back off to check belt which he claims is ok so thought it must be motor so takes it out to see if “owt looked dodgy ” ( his words not mine lol )

Could not see anything wrong , writes down the machine model and number on back of said motor (surprised he even wrote how many pins were in connector block 🙂 still thinks it’s the motor and asked our lass if i could get him a new one 💡 Don’t no how he thinks it’s the motor by just looking at it 😯 (at least our lass had the sense to say don’t bin the motor leave it for me to check (at least it’s out on his table by the sounds of it so easier to have a look lol) ..will megg it and check tacho and brushes when i get round just to ease his mind but cannot get there till sat morning …Will ring him tomorrow in-case the daft sod chucks it before i get there … once i test it i’ll fit it and see if the w/m behaves like he says ..

Hope he turned w/m off and unplugged it before he took back off 😮

You’ve no doubt set yourself up for a frustrating Saturday morning there. Friends and relatives always have strange faults on their machines. 😆

Tell me about it :rolls:

Re: beko wmc61 motor values

Managed to get round tonight to nephews and motor was already sat there for me 🙂 megged all the 8 pins –

All pins from 1-7 were 1000meg ohms ( meter is the meggar MIT220 which it’s highest scale is 1000m ) pin 8 was earth which read 0.00 all done on 500v setting.

Checked Tacho which was 2 yellow wires to pins 6-7 and that was 89.0 ohms with multimeter ..magnet was fine.

Looked at brushes and they were like new,to be honest motor looked new … Refitted motor checked a few other components did all my safty checks ,switched it on and away it went ..No problems while i was there ! told him to ring once it finished to let me know ..phoned later on and said it worked perfectly …Told him to get back if it happens again and not to touch it 😀 I think he was telling porkie pies some where along the line because he looked a little 😳 when i was asking why he thought motor and why take it off when he was not sure of problem..

I did notice that the front comes off nice on this w/m for a cheap brand which makes it easy for a door seal replacement 😀

Shaun p.s noticed plastic sealed drum on this so not very environmentally friendly !

probably just an out of balance load?

Beware ‘civies’ throwing you red herrings, you can waste alot of time like that!

Best to go into service mode & check error code first 💡

Not sure how to get into service mode on this unless it’s the same as the one in fault code book…Anyway everything seemed fine and had a text today saying still working fine after a full wash today 😉
