Re: John Lewis washing machine motor not working

Thanks for your reply. I cleaned the armature as best I could with the old brushes in place and it then ran for a couple of minutes before stopping again so I think I will try new brushes and clean the armature properly and see if that cures it.

Re: John Lewis JLWM 1201 stops after wash cycle.

Hi Dave,
Bad news, after working twice successfully yesterday my wife used it today and found the problem had returned. Do you think it may be the pressure switch needs replacing?
Thanks
Steve

Re: John Lewis JLWM 1201 stops after wash cycle.

Hi Dave,
I checked the pressure chamber and cleaned it although it looked ok. I also removed a lot of lime scale from the inside of the rubber hose while I had it apart. I put it back together and it now has gone through two complete cycles with no problems at all so looks like you were right. Great advice!
Many Thanks
Steve
