    Hi,

    the washer stopped working, so I checked the brushes, and found they had worn down. I have replaced the brushes, but the washer still won’t work.

    I thought it was just the brushes that had worn out and replacing the brushes would fix it – is it possible its somehow fuzed something else?

    The machine powers on, but the drum/motor won’t turn on just a spin cycle.

    Its 5 years old – is it time to bite the bullet?

    Given that you’ve already done the brushes the usual suspects for no drum movement are:
    -Wiring
    -Motor problem, particularly TOC or carbon deposits
    -PCB / timer module

    Time to dig out the multimeter…
