Hotpoint WD72

[atech]

I am getting a E15 error code on this machine. I have checked the drain hose, the pressure hose and switch. The machine is draining, but not going into a spin.

Megger the heater, chances are the drum has clouted it (i.e bearing knacked) 🙁

The drum goes around Ok. I have run a WET test. It does not spin in the WET test cycle. The machine get’s to the spin cycle and E15 comes up.

Is that a wet test with a load of towels in it? Have you checked the wash heater? It may be a corroded spider rather than worn bearings which may have done the deed!

I have done the wet test with cloths in and empty. The customer has not mentioned anything about it being nosiey

Whats the insulation reading of the machine with the motor unplugged?

Go from the pressure switch wires to earth if you don’t want to take the front panel off.

This machine goes through the wash. It shows E15 when it comes to the spin cycle
