whirlpool awm6111

[kladave]

this m/c has the selector knob in centre of console.the fault with this m/c is that when a programme is selected it completes prog but the progress light stays on spin,door ready light does not light up and remaining programme time stays on 1 minute. the door will open,once inside drum customer says clothes are warm!perhaps the timer is at fault

See if it will enter the test mode, if that doesn’t work either it would indicate the control unit is at fault but at a little under £170 list price :eeek: you want to be sure.

To enter test mode:

Select the drain programme and wait for it to stop pumping, of the six buttons to the right of the selector – press the second from right twice then press the third from right twice it should now be in test mode, this is indicated by the two neons above the two buttons pressed on, 60C temp displayed and the spin speed max led on.

To get out of test mode, turn the selctor to any other position.

Hi Kladave
If the lcd is showing one minute on the display and continues spining check for a faulty connection on the motor loom at the motor side. Usually it is the top wire. If unsure replace the loom from timer to motor. A common problem. Would not explain the clothes being warm tho. Check the hot and cold are on the right way round, if not i would look at the pump. Hoopes this sheds a guiding light.
