    Kate, we assume a degree of electro/mechanical knowledge for anyone wishing to undertake repairs to domestic appliances. With the power disconnected and panels removed access to components including the main motor are all too obvious.

    Alternatively seek help by sourcing a local repair person to tackle the job for you. 😀

    Given Beko’s appalling record for safety recalls on their condenser dryers, in this case it could be the main motor you need to check out.

    Be safe, unplug appliance from mains. :zap:

    The electronics vary the speed between either 1600 rpm or 2800 rpm dependent on programme selection. But from what you say it sounds like the motor itself ain’t even reaching 1600 so it must be for the junk bin.

    Have read forum/FAQ’s but still need help please NEFF S4130

    I imagine you have removed and cleaned the top nozzle in the roof of the tub? They often get crudded up.

    Testing if there is sufficient flow to the top spray arm best achieved as follows: allow machine to get well into a wash cycle. Switch off, open door and remove top basket completely. Place a washing up bowl onto bottom basket (to catch water from top nozzle) shut door, turn back on. After 30 seconds running all the water in the bottom of the tub should now be in the bowl. 😉

    If not you have circulating pump problems. 🙁

    Insufficient water pressure from circulating pump may mean the impeller has got clogged with debris OR has split. Circulating pump strip-down may well be on the cards.

As regards to what my diagnoses is, what I experiencing(btw it is not reacting to trace elements and it is not like you say) etc, that is a medical matter and not something I’m asking or discussing here.

    Perhaps ‘chlorinated’ might be interested in reading THIS article from yesterday’s Daily Mail?
