Re: hotpoint WM52 first edition.
Hello again peeps, all was well untill last week 9th sep when washing machine motor decided to pop out one of its brushes and damaged it badly,anyway bought some new ones ( genuine ones ) replaced them both pluged the machine back in turned power on machine selected a wash cycle switched it on, it put the water in then did a few rotations of the drum and blew the fues. ok so replaced fues started again it put water in again but NO rotation of drum at all. and thats the problem, please help 😀
Re: hotpoint WM52 first edition.
Hi its me again, today new wash load in machine, setting on E normal wash, lid removed from machine to see whats happening or not happening with water fill from double inlet valve, waiting and watching for it to stop where it stopped before ( rinse & spin cycle ) umm it did not stop it completed the full wash cycle, BUT I did notice that the inlet pipe for the conditioner drawer did not opperate but yey it did not stop the cycle from completing. So at least I know I do need a new double inlet valve fitting, This is the 3rd wash attempt after fitting the new brushes is it possible that the brushes have bedded them selfs in and solved the stuck cycle porblem :rolls:
Mr KB P.S. excuse my spelling.

Re: hotpoint WM52 first edition.
final result, stoped at same place on normal wash as it did on the economy wash, reached last rinse stage filled with water then tumbled a few times then stoped, waited ages for it to start again by itself but no joy. clicked dial on one click machine started to empty without finishing the rinse cycle and started final spin then finnished. rinse cycle knackered ?

Re: hotpoint WM52 first edition.
Ref to my last reply, just taken the brushes back out to check if the brushes was sprung out as they should be, all seems ok with brushes not stuck in now replaced back, just put new load in machine with setting at E on normal wash and normal load, will post result of what happens if it stops again or completes the full wash cycle. would like to say thanks to you two guys for your input so far.

Re: hotpoint WM52 first edition.
Hi Again, I cannot see any rinse hold or crease guard on the machine. ok I have now clicked the dial one notch and it has emptyed and done the final spin. As for the brushes i fitted them new today I did release the brushes but not by liffting a small tag as I did not see one, just a gentle pull released them But I did notice that when I shoved the brush back into the holder it stayed back as it was before I pull them out so I pull the brushes out again then fit them into the motor.
Re: hotpoint WM52 first edition.
Hi, Jim just tryed machine on economy and half load at setting E it managed to do all the cycles and stopped at the last empty and final spin, waited over 20 mins for it to do something water sill there in machine.
Re: hotpoint WM52 first edition.
Hi, thanks for your quick reply, so if the machine will wash through the economy cycle you say its the heater that may have gone. next question where is the heater located and is it as easy as the brushes to replace.
regards Mr KB
Re: hotpoint WM52 first edition.
Hi, I didnt think this machine had an heater as it has both hot and cold feed, but then again im no expert.
