    Belt is fine and it does agitate during the wash cycle. Was think the spin cycle of the dial is maybe had it

  • rotormadness Mar 28, 2009

    I havn't checked that yet. Not really to sure how to get into that area between the drum and the tub though

  • rotormadness Mar 28, 2009

    Checked that cant see anything jammed in there. Took agitater off earlier and cleaned out under it, was alot of lint and hair wrapped around the shaft. Thought maybe that was the prob but no. Just put another load thru and all is clean but still soaking wet

  • rotormadness Mar 28, 2009

    Yeah i did check the belt when on spin and its just not moving at all

Is the belt broke? Have you checked during the wash cycle if it is agitating.

    Does the belt slip in the spin cycle? Something stuck between the drum and the tub?(sock)? I've had this happen, I didn't think a baby sock could stop the basket, but I was wrong.

  • Anonymous Mar 28, 2009

    Check right under the lid above the lip of the basket and see if you see anything sticking out.

  • Anonymous Mar 28, 2009

    Did you check under the washer to see if the belt was slipping in the spin cycle or just not turning.

    You will have to check for power from the controller to the motor. But I would agree with you in saying the controller is likely bad.

My Zanussi WJD 1257 washer/dryer's drying cycle has started finishing early. No error codes. The wash cycle works fine but the drying cycle is simply stopping prematurely. You can set it to dry for 45...

Good Day,
Your washing machine is fully automatic?
the washing cycle is normal?
if yes do the same maybe it will help you.
for the fully automatic washing machine mostly have drain pump, please check the filter of your drain pump, how? remove the cup of your drain pump like a ordinary cup, screw it clock wise or counter clock wise.
Remove drain pump filter and clean it, some hair pins, cotton buds or coins or any small item that coz of clog up.
if your washing machine dont have drain pump ,but fully automatic check the drain motor if running or not? how? open the back cover for top loader washing machine only, select spin cycle and press start to see the drain motor running? the drain motor is like a small box with small wire to pull the lever of the drain to remove water inside, if the motor running or pull the lever of the water pipe but water still inside the washing machine, remove the drain cup or cover and clean it or check if have coin or cloth inside that coz of clog or water stuck,
if the drain pump or drain motor is weak this is will cause and long time draining or totally not running the drain pump or drain motor and its cause of totally stop the cycle of washing machine in rinse time or spin time, because all fully automatic washing machine, after washing cycle the drain pump or drain motor must be on, to remove water before start the next cycle. rinse or spin cycle.

Machine will not spin dry the clothes and stops mid cycle

Hi ricevans,

Check to make sure that the filter in the pump is not clogged. Open the little door on the bottom and have a towel ready as there will be some water in the pump. Turn the dial slowly and let the water seep out. Pull out the dial and if you see any kind of debris, (lint, coins, etc..) Clean out all of this and put back into place and your machine will work fine. The reason for this is that the pump is designed to pump out all the water in an 8 min cycle if it exceeds the time limit the machine just stops. Hope this helps you out.

The machine will fill with water and run through the first part of the cycle, then stop. If I turn the setting dial to the next setting the machine will start, but does not pump out the water. At each step...

Have exactly the same problem. At first thought it was broken drain pipe--as I found broken drain pipe searching for a fix for this--coincidence? Anyway, drain pipe fixed, and unit still will not enter spin mode. When unit gets to spin mode, there's an audible click (solenoid), and the unit will not spin or drain the water.
All else is working fine.
What part should be replaced?

Rubbing and Clicking Noise in Dryer.

It's noisy Most noises from a washing machine occur during the spin cycle. If you hear loud thumping during the spin, the load of clothes may have become unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary. 

A common problem with noises from washing machines has been the under wire that may come out of small clothes. In the washer they can get stuck in one of the inner basket holes and make a scrapping noise, they can actually make there way into the pump and jam the pump, or make a terrible noise when the pump is running. Grab a flash light and have a peek inside the washer for this. Front load washers seem very common to this happen! If the tiny cloth  is showing signs of fraying, may be best not to wash it in the washing machine, replace the cloth

Washing machine making a clicking noise.

The problem most likely is something stuck in the water port of the drain pump. My machiine would not empty once and I found a 12 penny nail that had made its way from the drum though the drain line to the the pump, where it was wedged against the impellers that spins to draw out the water through the pump. The pump is located in the front right bottom of the machine and accessible by reoving the lower front panel, It is held in place by 4 small screws and is connected to the drain lines. Disconnect the plug for the outlet, then disconnect the power connection from the pump. Disconnect the drainlines after removing as much water possible from the drum as the water will come out of these liines when you remove them. Remove the pump, open the cover to see the impeller and hopefully the bobby pin, nail, screw, or whatever else is stuck there will be visible and easily removed. Put the pump cover back on, replace the drain lines and screws, and reconnect the power connection to the pump. Then do a better job checking your pockets.
