ok first the concrete block snapped off. so i take the back right spring out and its fine buut. it was all good for a couple of weeks but now its died. the timer starts but nothing happens. sometimes it works but it jolts the whole way through its tumbles. and when it goes into spin it might spin or it wil go back to dead and keep the timer running.

whats happened?
and how long do i have to works to fix it haha jks nah how much would it cost.?
 
your washer

hey,i often seen the concrete block to come off in the whirlpools,it has obviously damaged the timer,i.e dust ect has gotten in and possibly the block has hit it ect,also check the wiring loom as some wires may be broken,how old is your washer?,it can be fixed but at a cost and some time id say
 
hey haha um i checked the wires its all goood. but its still not working. everything but the motor works. so maybe the motor has packed it in. do you know how much thats gonna kill my bank account?

LOL im so not happy i have like 7 loads of washing to do and it gets worse. my boyfriend is moving in and i have his stuff grr lol.
 
Hi

If the motor has carbon brushes it may be that these need replacing. Jolting and not spinning is a classic sign that the brushes need replacing.

Its something else to check before giving up.

yeah i thought that too cos it happened to my bexdix but they took the bendix and told me i couldnt have it back and is it at all possible they will do that with my whirlpol cos the whole outer drum needs replacment because that concrete melted what ever it was holding on to b4 it came off.
