hi guys have to look at a creda washing machine model w22ovw the problum is when it had finished the wash the clothes were still wet so she put it on spin would not spin is there any thing to look out for other than say a blockage in the pump or brushes in the motor what type of brushes are in this machine is the motor on top or under neath and does this type of machine have any flashing lights thanks fasetester 🙂
Re: creda w22ovw
OOB. Has she tried the machine empty to eliminate this. This is basically a WMA type machine, the later one can have the welded tub and the Indesit type drain & filter at the front.

Quick of the mark there Clive, I moved your last post to Trade Spares BTW. 😉
Re: creda w22ovw
dont know guys she just said when the wash was finished the clothes were wet is the motor in this machine in the top or bottom and when she tryed to spin them no go she said it was making some kind of noise but not spinning unless the belt has come off or broke and the noise she heard is the motor no unusal faults or thing to look out for fasetester 🙂

Well I thought telling you it was basically a WMA would have given you a smidgen of a clue, :rolls: 😆
Unlikely to be brushes unless it has been really hammered. Make sure it is not just OOB then look for breaks in wiring harness around the motor plug. Faulty belt should be obvious. 😉
Jim.
do you mean the load has caused this oob would it not have kept going and when the load had leveled out then spun fasetester
Re: creda w22ovw
Occasionally a load just refuses to balance but more commonly if there is a very small load there just isn’t physically enough laundry to spread around the drum to balance it. Usually happens if the load is just a couple of woolly items or towels both of which become very heavy when wet but not large enough to spread around the drum surface 😉
Re: creda w22ovw
fasetester wouldn’t it be best to simply go out and take a look at this machine first? Interrogating your customer on the phone does have its limitations as often they haven’t a clue what’s happening or give the correct account anyway? That’s why they asked you to take a look at it after all said and done. 🙂
We are now trying to speculate on the cause from that information. Take a look at it for us and let us know what you reckon is wrong, eh? 😉
Re: creda w22ovw

Well I never :rolls:
It just goes to show that investigation reveals more than speculation ever will. 😉
