    Re: whrilpool washing machine type WW DC 7210/1 noisy spinni

    Hi
    Have had a look at the washer, and it turns out to be the back bearing of the drum,
    this looks abit of a pig to replace, is this a difficult job?

    Thanks

    Hi Dave,
    Thank you for your reply, did try just running drain pump, no nasty noise, so thats ok
    I think it’s more like the concrete weights may be loose, I have had to put it back in it’s built in area, so will get it out again soon and check the weights

    Thanks

    Hi,
    Just to let you all know I have fixed the Whrilpool washer

    Fault turned out to be worn out motor brushes, not sure why the water never came in , may have been that the logic of the machine expects to see motor tacho before opening the water mag valves, or may be a red herring.

    As most of you repair folks may well know, this model is not that bad to work on, the motor is held on by one bolt which has a captive thread, and almost self adjusts the belt tension by the weight of the motor pulling down on the belt.

    there is no motor control board so the programmer is driving all the motor windings by relays, and no transformer to fail in the programmer, as its just mains ac into the bridge rectifier

    The local repair shop had the brushes in stock at £18:00 a set, albeit they were not a direct match the brush tapper was the opposite way, so you have to turn the brush in the plastic body by 180 degrees, and cut a bit out of the plastic body to let the brush connection tail out.

    Thanks fella’s and ladies

    hi
    Thanks for your help, the fault was the 10 volts ac transformer in the module
    primary open circuit, this transformer provides the +5 volts for chip etc.
