    My GW701U won’t Spin.

    It went through the entire Wash and Rinse cycles then emptied when it got to the Spin cycle. Once empty however, it wouldn’t spin and just beeped constantly.

    Turned it off, ran diags and got the single current trip error. Turned it on again and advanced through to then Spin cycle. Pressed Start and the pump ran but when emptied the drum just kicks every 3 seconds and won’t spin.

    By the way, I checked the hose to the pressure switch and it is clear.

    Any clues please mate?

    Possible wiring fault at stator or rotor sensor – corrosion problems quite common. Winding in stator may be failing. Motor board fault possible. Always worth checking lid and OOB switch just in case.
