Re: F&P GW609 pump oscillates but won’t spin

thanks Penguin, I tried that with the same result, the pump turns very slowly, eg would probably take 10-20 seconds to do one revolution if power remained on long enough. The other thing I have found is that after trying the pump, when the washing machine eventually cuts out I have disconnected the pump, the coil is quite hot, I measure the resistance and it’s quite high (about 50ohms) and gradually drops back to around 33 as the coil cools which is what I believe the resistance is supposed to be. I have tried this with both my old pump and the new one. I am wondering if maybe my circuit board is fried and the pump is not getting the correct type of power? I can’t think where else the problem could be?
