Have a small problem. Took motor apart to give it a good clean and renew brushes. It’s one with eight terminals and the brushes that have to be soldered in to the plastic carrier. Unfortunately I didn’t mark end plate to field coil and it’s just possible that I have put field coil back in 180 degrees out. I noticed when I had it apart that there were three prongs on each field coil connection from the brush carrier but on one side of the coil there was only one receiving socket, the remaining two being unpopulated. Put it back and it did a wash action and a spin cycle fine but customer phoned today to say it stopped silent before end of cycle although it appears wash was spun 😕 .
Going back for a look tomorrow, although he’s going to try a couple more loads meantime and will call off if it’s just a running-in problem.
Sorry didn’t make a note of full e-no. but if someone is familiar with these things they’ll probably know about this.
Thanks for reading.

Sorry Mike don’t have a wiring diagram but I’m pretty sure you put the coil back in correctly otherwise there would have been no motor action whatsoever. However, having said that when you go back tomorrow you could always switch the coil 180 to find out for sure. I would think your new brush connection has gone o/c meanwhile as the likely problem.

Thankyou Martin. You were quite right, one brush had stuck in its holder. I had realised this might happen but had fiddled around and thought I had sorted it. Reason was I had used wrong brushes (too long and with flex in centre) because I didn’t have right ones with me and wanted to get job done in one hit as customer had loads of washing to do. Reason I had not had right brushes with me was because first ones up on Connect were standard type and I had thought I’d be in for some easy money 😳 . Didn’t realise what I needed as other type were only shown as complete end plate.
I had measured through tags with motor assembled in each of the two ways and seemed to have believable (though different) readings either way round. Anyway, all going well again now and hopefully won’t be called back too soon.
Mike.
