Default Zanussi motor testing question

I have a Zanussi 1200 washer/dryer where the motor has stopped turning
the drum altogether. I have already:

1 - replaced the brushes (thought this was the problem but no luck)
2 - put a meter across the armeture with the power on and whatched the
voltage vary up and down

Question:
1 - how do I test the field windings - any idea of pin outs or test I
should do with a meter etc
2 - how do I test the tacho (which I am assuming is the device attached
to the end of the shaft)
3 - how do I proove its the PCB and if so any test worth doing prior to
replacement
