    Check the wiring form module to motor plug for continuity.
    Check the rear of the motor (opp motor shaft) to see if the small tacho unit is loose or hanging off.

    All these can be done with the power off :plug:
    Any further faulting would best sorted or confirmed by an engineer from the link below.

    Also count the number of flashes on the mains neon when the knob starts to click round, it should click a set number then pause, then repeat this ubtil you stop it.
    The number of flashes is an error code.
