Default Dead Tumble Drier (Philips AWB 681)


Chris O wrote in message ...
The motor on my drier will no longer turn the drum. There is a noise from
the motor as though it is trying to turn. I got the motor out thinking it
could be worn brushes but it appears to be a brushless motor. The windings
show continuity. All bearings move freely. Can anyone advise how I can test
such a motor. Or suggest what other component may have failed

Thanks

Dead capacitor, starter relay or open circuit start winding. all worth a
look.
