Love you Mr washing machine man,just replaced my washers either help from you,saved me lots of pennies thank you xxx

[@davidmcquillan7645]

Hey, thanks for the video, my washing machine stopped spinning and I followed the instructions on your video and found my washing machine belt on the floor in one piece and put it back on the machine (the belt had not snapped) . My washing machine is now working. Thank you and happy to recommend

[@loreleiszatkowski672]

Wouldn't have known how to troubleshoot without this video. Just replaced the carbon motor brushes and it spins! So happy to have the washer back in operation. Thanks a bunch!!

[@AndrijaBudva]

Thanks man! On my machine the belt just fell off, so it was very simple to put it back on. Thanks!

[@allrockzcarlo]

yes man it is

[@thumperman8490]

Adjust the belt tension to make sure it stays on.

[@myhubbyislouisvuitton4218]

My Indesit Futura HF8B593 drum is not spinning. When I opened the door to check it the drum it appears to be disconnected at the front part nearest to the door. Please, can you help? Thanks.

[@drormik]

my washing machine doesnt spin because a lace looks to have went out through side hole of the drum, and wrapped around the hinge. Do you have a video/suggestion on how to resolve such a thing please ?

[@marretjelammertse2465]

Is er ook uit leg in Hollands?

[@bigtom1001]

Hi,hoping somebody can help,i have the indesit widl146,it has stopped working,but the light still works,if i put it on spin or rinse ,the light is on for what the machine should be doing,earlier after being switched off for an hour,it started working again,all good until it got to the rinse stage,it then just stopped,now it just doesn't work,the door lock works,i was about to order carbon brushes,but read the machine would still fill and empty if it was the brushes,thanks

[@stefanbarrie2232]

[@officialmysteriousrider6327]

[@emoreno801]

my machine won't spin and the code E5E is display my machine is Frigidaire affinity what would be the problem?

[@janieskelton-christian7652]

My Electrolux front load washer is showing an LE59 error code. It won't fill with water or or go through the cycles. I tried running the spin cycle to get rid of any water in it, if at all. But, it won't go into the spin cycle either. Have checked the water inlet valves, hoses, screens, etc. That's all good! When you put it on the wash cycle it sounds like the water wants to come in(humming sound), but doesn't. However, there's water coming out the bottom right side. Not alot, but enough to stand. So, the code is showing to check the drive motor, but, what do I check on it?? HELP, I NEED TO DO LAUNDRY!!!

[@markedwards7638]

Looked on your site, found new board. I've checked the belt, brushes, all good. Do you think its the board.

[@carenroberts9896]

Help I overloaded my indisit innex washing machine,and now it's not spinning out the water it's trying to but not happening...and the drum is moving a lot..

[@bachireid2235]

Hye plz i have a hoover dynamic next one touch i have a problem about spinning they not spinning properly why maybe from the carbon brushes ?

[@slangking1]

..or if it hasn't drained properly it's not going to spin so check the filter/pump outlet right ?

[@OldBiker]

I just fixed my Indesit non spinning / tumbling drum by clearing a blockage in the big rubber waste pipe below the drum itself, nothing to do with the brushes or belt either, so you might want to add that to the list of possible causes.

[@paulaslife3781]

OldBiker how did you get the drum out? Mine is a front loader

[@OldBiker]

@@paulaslife3781 Hi matey, I tipped the washing machine on its side and the pump was accessible from the bottom

[@abdussamed107]

After a brush change on the motor the armature of my mashine gets really really hot. What could be the reason?

[@enjoywithMariol]

Thanks for your video. It is very useful. Could you pls help us with an idea. We have Hoover VHD148A and it stopped spinning. The display is working. When we press “start” water is taking the powder from the dispenser, filling the washing machine and when it is time to spin there is just a click sound and that’s it. We can turn the drum manually, we checked the belt and it is on its place. Thanks a lot

[@toriolamiemmanuel4309]

What about snowflake drum wtct802 washing machine that is not spinning and also the belt is in good order and the motor it doesn't use brush but capacitor and all that is workings except to spin???

[@ranashahidislam9495]

I had a Hotpoint for 9 years and no problems. I bought a Samsung not even a year old and the drum isn't turning...

[@gripperrod]

On my machine the waste pump was blocked by a pound coin, the machine couldn’t empty and wouldn’t spin.

[@gripperrod]

Removed the coin and all was well.

[@nana__yaa__]

How did you do that please

[@colinmcloughlin8301]

The drum on my machine, tries to rotate both ways slightly, rattles and stops. Will still fill and drain as normal but won't start a cycle. Also issue occurred during cycle. Anyway of diagnosing this?

In the UK we don’t all have laundry rooms so our machines are usually in the kitchen.
