My aquabot T4 just sits and spins. remote does nothing to help. motors are spinning in oposite directions. It lunges forward about 2-3 inches then stops and spins in circles. Repair shop wants over $500 just to look at it (before they fix anything)

SOURCE: Aquabot T2 moving in circle

The T2 has one set of belts and a single drive motor. Since one side must be rotating to be moving in a circle, we can then assume that the motor and belts are not the issue here. The two halves of the brushes are connected by a mechanism that allows them to turn independently of the other half. They can rotate about 3 times before they “lock” and act as it were one (not split) brush. This “slippage” is how the cleaner turns. Make sure that they do lock by manually rotating one side. If not, you will need new brush/wheel tubes.

SOURCE: Aquabot T4 RC, Pump runs for 1 second then shuts

Mine does this too some times. I find that if i manually force the wheels (out of water) to turn slightly and then put it back in the water it works again for a bit. I think something is jamming it but can not find out what the issue is. Let me know if you solve it!

Washer will not spin. Cleaned drain/filter. Worked for 2 days. Now won't spin and checked drain, it is clean. The drain pump works fine. What to check next?

i had the same problem a year ago. nothing seemed to work. we even got a new washer, same problem. we ended up putting the washer on its own circuit. works fine now.

Wheels spinning in opposite directions

the polarity is reversed on one of the motors, if the gear selecter is in low or high gear the wheels should propell the vehicle forward, whichever wheel is not propelling the vehicle forward switch the wires around on the motor

My ceiling fan is spinning in the WRONG direction. I know because I have an identical fan spinning in the right direction. How do I get my fan to spin in the right direction? It has been doing this ever...

shut it off, an get up there and see if it has a directional switch, to make it go forward or back wards. also be sure the blades are not upside down on fan motor. the reverse switch should be on the fan motor housing so it can be reversed.

I need to wire my DJ-20 Jointer back to 230 and I don't have schematic Suggestions?

Assuming you have a standard dual-voltage single-phase motor, your wire colors should be:

T1 - Blue
T2 - White
T3 - Orange
T4 - Yellow
T5 - Black
T8 - Red

For 220V wiring, you want:

Line 1 (to Black wire from switch):
Blue
Black

Line 2 (to White wire from switch):
Yellow

Tied together with a wire tie:
Red
Orange
White

This should make it so the shaft spins counter-clockwise. If you need it to spin the other direction, switch the red and black wire from the motor.

Dosen't spin with clothes in. works well without clothes

What you have is a bad thrust bearing. The main drive pulley and assorted washers act to release the brake in the spin mode. In the wash mode the tub must be locked down or the clothes would wrap around the agitaor and knot up real bad. The motor turns in the oposite direction to spin and when it foes a cam riser in the main puley releases the brake package and pumps out while spinning. I have a detailed repair sequence with photos, manual, and directions HERE
