Hi there my washer broke down a couple of weeks ago and I traced to fault to corrosion on the pcb.
its been working fine but just today it has decided to start playing up again.
Its giving fault code 130 randomly and fault code 136.
I looked it over but couldnt see any obvious signs of the cause.
so a ran it empty and it went through a cycle with out a hitch.
However when I loaded it up with clothes it wont spin.
has anybody got any ideas?
what differance does the weight of the clothes make?
Both are motor related – 130 is the Rotor Position Error, 136 is motor stall. Quite likely to be wiring issues down at the motor. It gets wet, the connectors suffer from corrosion and oxidisation just as the pcb does.
Weight will contribute, as the motor has to work harder to get the load moving. Poor connections = poor current flow.
