The machine washes till it comes to the rince cycle and stops the timer counts down to 1 minute and sits doing nothing. also the machine seems to get out of ballance in the spin cycle is there a circuit diagram as it looks like there must be a out of balance sensor??
SOURCE: Hi, I have an Electrolux
Im taking it that you have a squirrel cage motor.(motor without bruhes) Locate the capacitor and replace it. Most of the time its the capacitor that has malfunctioned and that will stop the spin cycle. If you have a soft start.(an electronic control), then check the brushes. Possibly need someone to help as the motor will need to be removed to gain access to the brushes. Check length. must be at least 25 mm.(otherwise not enough tension). Make sure power is pulled out when doing this repair.

Hi, you most likely are getting a "RPS Sensor Fault"
When the motor rotor position sensor fails, it will act exactly like you describe. Many techs incorrectly replace the machine control or the water inlet valve(s). The RPS sensor is much cheaper. If you consult the tech sheet, you will see the fault code for RPS failure and I would bet the farm that the sequence of LEDs displayed if it does when your washer faults out matches exactly with the RPS fault code.
