Re: Hotpoint wf250: programs not starting
Sounds good. So: thanks for everyones’ advice and the quick service from Shop@. It looks like this machine will do a few more washes at least!
Cheers

Re: Hotpoint wf250: programs not starting
Next day service on the brushes & com stick so thanks for that. All fitted now going through a test wash. So far so good but it sounds like aomeone’s having a scalextric run in there. I guessing that this is the new brushes on the comutator (the noise changes every time the drum direction does). Have I misaligned something (not sure how I could have)? I’mn hoping that the brushes will bed in after the first couple of spins but if I’m about to destroy something it would be good to know first!

Welly it was! – brushes do look worn and one is a bit black so I’ll try and track down a new set.

Re: Hotpoint wf250: programs not starting
Thanks! Just remains for me to get the motor out! I’ve removed the belt and power connector. As far as I can see there are only the two bolts at the back holding it in. However, once I;ve removed those then the motor still seems stubbornly fixed. Am I missing something or do I need to apply more welly?
Cheers
