Thanks for the tips.

I was going to get the brushes sorted out and my wife went online and ordered a new machine :rolls:

I suppose I could fix it and sell it or get something from the scrap metal merchant??

Re: Zanussi WJS 1265W Question

I managed to turn the washing machine on its side to have a look at the motor. I can’t physically see anything wrong with it. I pulled the connections out and pushed them back in –

I can’t tell if the brushes are worn, I tried removing the bolts to have a look at them but they are tiny and you can’t get a socket or spanner round them. The brushes look like they are touching the magnets on the spindle. I turned the washing machine back on and the drum spins slowly and only for a few rotations every 30 seconds or so and I can hear a crackling sound from near the general area of the motor when the drum does spin.
