Re: Boach Exxcel 1400 faulty motor?

Hi Thanks for the comments

A bit more info

I have just tried an empty spin and the same thing happens.

spin 1400 – spins for about a minute at a highish speed, stops tries to spin again gets up to speed and stops. Not sure if it gets to 1400.
then the timer jumps to 1 minute and stops.

They are the pattern brushes and I have filed the edge to get good contact and have made sure they are not sticking, it will run through a complete wash just has problems spinning.

I know if I buy bosch brushes it will turn out to be the motor, if i buy a motor it will be the brushes (but I won’t know).

I check the motor
pins 2-3 = 1.4 ohms
pins 4-5 = 3.2
pins 6-7 = 24

assuming I got pin 1right.

Sounds to me like the motor breaking down, anything else to check?
