Out of balance detection on Indesit WG1234T W/M query

Indesit WG1234T

Does any one know if this machine has OOB detection on it. ❓

Customer has lost user manual

It spins fine with no load.
But customer complains it doesn’t spin enough with a couple of towels.
Have checked machine with towels and agree with customer, it starts to spin then aborts into distribute then tries again several times, at the end it does give a very short spin, then ends spin prog.

Drains ok B4 spin, carbons ok.

Yes Malc it has, most likely the Module needs attention/replacing 😉

Megger the motor to be sure it’s OK though :lesson:

If it’s adjustable, try tightening the belt. If not, try a new belt. All sorts of strange behaviour from these machines if belt is stretched. (Cheaper than a module and worth a try).
DP 😛

Thanks Lads ?

Will return to job after customer has tried with a more “Balaced load”. Just to see what happens.

Just to say it was the module after all, so a reasonable price repair.

Thanks
