Re: Bosch Maxx WFL2066 – No motor movement
To take this a positive step further can I suggest you contact Bosch (BSH Appliance Care Ltd) directly and consult their ‘Technical Dept’ here is a link for your convenience.
Sorry I cannot help further for you and good luck 🙂

How much in total was his quote AND do you have that in writing?

Re: 2 problems: Zanussi washing machine, Phillips fridge
Long,
The drain channel may well be blocked and overflowing. It should have a drain hole in the centre or end of that channel attached to a hose leading through the back and onto the compressor. 🙂
Unless you live in Australia (maybe 😕 ) the Dispenser is otherwise called a ‘Soap Drawer’ (Some Aussie machines aren’t fitted with them at all) and that soap drawer could be blocked and splashing over and down towards the porthole door (making you think the door is leaking)…Just a thought 😛

Maybe they are had they seen the job to a successful conclusion? May I enquire how much their quote was to do so?

Re: Bosch Maxx WFL2066 – No motor movement
Your presumptions are correct in that the motor does rely on a 230/240 AC supply directly to the 8 way ‘motor plug’ from the circuit board. I am not in a position to tell you which wire goes to which on that motor plug and I cannot advise or recommend you checking it either. 🙁
Going back to your original situation for a moment, you say the motor suddenly stopped turning? Now as I previously stated, it usually means that the brushes are worn down completely (less that 8mm long and the end blackened and no longer smooth) If that wasn’t the situation in your case then I am sure the motor is fine :tup:
Therefore you can likely assume the main circuit board is at fault (Part No: 268118 cost £104.53) and is not repairable in any way I’m sorry to say.
Beyond that I cannot help you further and recommend you call in the experts.

Re: Bosch Maxx WFL2066 – No motor movement
The relay clicks you’re hearing could well be the reverse tumble action supplying power to the motor during the ‘wash’ part of the cycle 😕
If you set the machine to spin however those same relays will click only for a short period of time prior to the continous spin sequence begins.
I wonder why, when it took the engineer just 2 minutes to diagnose a motor failure why he didn’t fit a new one to prove his diagnosis to you? It’s your option NOT to have the repair completed after all 🙂
I can assure you that Bosch circuit boards are not repairable no matter how deft you are with a soldering iron 🙁

Re: Bosch Maxx WFL2066 – No motor movement
In almost all circumstances the motor not turning is simply due to worn carbon brushes (Part No: 154740). I have never encountered (yet?) any other motor fault with this model. I would be surprised if the windings were at fault and as long as you have continuity through all terminal connections (including the internal thermal fuse link 😉 ) and that the motor plug is in order, then it should work 😕
Some machines can have Control Module Board failure that would stop a supply to the motor but that is very rare and is usually accompanied with an ‘error’ signal on the front panel.

Never heard of a CL477?
and as you have found out the CL447 is a Crosslee Dryer(Whirlpool type) 🙁

Re: Indesit Washing machine WG1130T spin cycle
Will the drum spin at all? Have you tried without washing in to see if it does a full spin I wonder?

Re: Christmas Bash 2004
Sorry to say but there is yet another nasty rumour going about 🙁
…..word has it that Ken is turning up wearing a kilt :scots: ?????
……..so far at least we can only hope it’s just a rumour :rotfl:

Re: Hoover Tumble Dryer “Filter Service” Light is
Fred,
Its likely that the fault is indeed associated with the heater unit, still think you have got the model number wrong (should possibly be TV630001)
However best get someone in to check it 😉Martin
Re: Bosch Maxx WFL2066 – No motor movement
This is an odd one! I too do not recognise the model number. Please, please can you give us the full model number in order to assist 🙂

Re: Washer/dryer – clothes hot, but soaking wet
We do not condone the last post by suggesting one simply lifts the lid to gain access, although thank the postee for the observation 🙂
We do however recommend that washer dryers be serviced occasionally ONLY by an experienced person, such repairs are NOT a DIY fix!
