Dear customer,
Error 30 (on Hotpoint) just means the motor isn't working. Several things, including the power module, can cause this. The most common cause though is worn carbon brushes. There is also a 7.5 amp fuse on or near the power module, which can blow. This fuse is on the motor circuit to protect the circuitry of the power module. If it blows, then the motor won't work and you will get error 30. If it has blown, it's likely to be caused by the motor. I had one last week where the armature in the motor had shorted to earth which blew the 7.5 Amp fuse.
It probably needs a new Pump, the wm72 has what they call a magnet pump and they can give false readings to the programme. Anew pump will cost sround 20 GBP. For an engineer to do it will cost around 50 GBP.
code e30 means motor fault. this can be just motor brushes, tacho fault or module fault. can't narrow it down more than this - you will have to dive in and check
Loaded machine up, started up ok few minutes into cycle code came up
