Re: Hotpoint WMA62 (9 y/o) only runs when less than half ful

Just an update – replaced the brushes – everything back to normal.

Thanks for all the help.

Ok, next step. Took top off, disconnected pressure tube from sensor at top, and blew down. Reconnected.

It then happily spun the load that I started previously, and has now successfully started washing a full load.

Is it possible that a small piece of fabric may have enterned the outer tub whilst the paddle was missing, and blocked the pressure tube…? And if so, how do I remove it?

I may have been a bit hasty – although it has washed a small load it has refused to spin it, so still sitting there soaking wet.

The error code displayed was E-39.

Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply.

Belt seems fine, motor is sparking a little bit but does not seem excessive. I did wonder if something might have gone adrift down one of the holes, as we did do a couple of loads with the paddle missing (as needs must…!)

I’ll try and get an error code out in a bit – it’s mid cycle at the moment.

Cheers

Matt
