Help With HooverMatic 3314L

Don't panic

Well done on winning it. You will get it going with a bit of time. The pump runs off the spin dryer motor as per the picture of my T5090 - same design for the 3314L. You can see the pump with its belt. The spinner belt does not show up. When you get yours it will all become clear

Wash motor

This picture also shows the wash motor on the left hand side. When are you collecting yours?

sesteve thanks so much man!

I will have a good look over the machine when I collect it this week. I will test various bits with a Multimeter for continuity and such. Perhaps the timer and control switch? just to make sure they are in order. I can post the results here of my findings perhaps?

No worries

Sounds like a plan. Hopefully it will all become obvious once you are able to look inside and get your meter onto it. Look forward to finding out how you get on and you are in the right place for help. If you search on here for 3314l you will see a few other posts with photos which might help too.
Cheers
Steve

Ahh your pictures answer a lot. So with regards to the pump Steve on the 3314L the pumps is not Electrical? Has no electrical connection/workings like say a Central Heating pump?. The pump is "driven" by a belt from the spinner motor and this makes the pump mechanics work and pump the contents of the spinner or wash tub out. Right thisis becoming a bit clearer so the pump has no electrical bits to go wrong it is simply all mechanical?

Yes, the pump belt stretches quicker than the other belts so often all you need is a new belt.

Hi Wight rabbit

great you've won this machine, I've chipped in my thoughts in your other thread, but agree with all the advice given, given that you sound very capable of repairs, it will all become quite straight forward when you actually get to work on the machine.

Anyway, welcome again,

Mathew
