Crosby top load. Approx. 5 years old. Tries to spin then goes dead. No power. Removed the belt and the motor turns fine, after cooling down. Seems like the spin is jambed. Any ideas? Steve

Hi,

Ur power supply board is dead, u know basic electronics’ and soldering? Most of the times, the power supply board just have dead leakages gases capacitors.These capacitors always bulges up on it top,or puff up on it top.Replaced these gases leakages capacitors will get your tv power stable,and work again.Or tries websites like Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a whole refurbish power supply board for the replacement.
Hope this will help...

If the washine machine motor runs, but refuses to go into spin mode, a good possibility is that the carbon brushes have worn

transmission out buy new washer cost to great to repair 15 year old washer

hi 5 years old ? from the symptoms you have described this is most probably the machines motor brushes are too low/worne as they all do in time this is not too difficult to diy repair if you feel confident ? the brushes in uk cost around £5 --£6 approx and to change them is easy by removing rear cover on machine you muat disconnect power/ drain pipe/ and turn off water supply pipe/s from machine ? the motor is rather like cars alternator in apearance?? disconnect power plug from it then you will have to look at motor and observe how it secures then remove bolts/nuts if you have new brushes to hand ??it will become obviouse how//where they fit and wire connects on each x2 at this it would be advisable after 5 yrs? to fit a new belt too? refit motor+belt adjust belt tension by adjusting motor on slide adjust then tighten? reassemble all parts in reverse then try a wash ? this is common prob especially after long time and for your info the down comforter load was the final nail in coffin but should have no probs after new brushes always think the positive waves! not the negative! good luck

if the motor buzzes when you push start then it is a bad motor.as long as the drum turns freely by hand.

hi. thanks for the question . i would check the lid switch ,on that washer. it could be the problem thanks. the appliance doc

hi. thanks for the question. the problem is .there is something caught in the water pump, and a burnt out belt ,replace both parts thanks the appliance doc

the smaller belt is causing the tub to spin too quickly. the shorter belt is causing the motor to overheat and causing the thermal overload protector to shut dowqn the motor. when the motor cools it starts up again. replace the belt with te correct size and that will solve your problems

The motor will have to be replaced if bearings are out. However, the smell you describe sounds like the belt slipping, which means something else is binding up. With the belt removed, turn each pulley and double check each one. A water pump is much more likely to fail than a motor. Good Luck

1st of all is there a spin cancel buuton on this machine and has it been activated, or is there a spin speed selector knob and has it been turned down...is inner drum easily turned by hand.if it is ok then belt tension could be suspect (tighten)im sure there is an out of load balance detection circuit on the main circuit board....also is it draining ok because it wont spin until it cant dectect low or no water prior to final spin.....also if it has a programme dial the select a spin programme on another section of selector dial.........hope this is of some help...
