Default Bosch Maxx washing machine

Hi, my Bosch Maxx WFL2260 has developed a fault whereby the drum has
stopped turning. It still fills and empties with water, but no
movement at all. There seems to be activity within the machine with
regard to noises etc, but thats it. Any clues?


Cheapest thing to check first is the drum motors brushes. They may have
a pin that pops out when they get too short and pushes the brush away
from the cummutator to prevent damage..

Make sure you isolate power completely when meddling with the motor. I
repeat that washing machines are one of the highest factors on domestic
electrocutions for DIY'ers.
