Beko 71543B repeats 15 to 12 minutes on spin and drain

The problem

A Beko 71543B washing machine on the spin and drain programme at 1500 spin starts normally but, at 12 minutes remaining, stops, returns to 15 minutes, then repeats this cycle instead of completing. The reported instance continued for 21 minutes until the machine was switched off.

Likely cause

The strongest supported explanation is that the machine is repeatedly trying to balance the load before fast spin and is not achieving a balanced condition. If the behaviour happens on every load, the accepted reply says a fault in the pressure system, PCB, or balancing-related system is possible, but no exact fault was confirmed.

What fixed it

First check whether the problem only happens on some loads or on every load. If it is intermittent, the accepted advice points to load balancing rather than a definite component failure. If it happens every time, an engineer was recommended because the fault could be in the pressure system, PCB, or another part of the balancing control system. The exact repair was not confirmed in the discussion.

Checks to try

• Observed that the timer stops at 12 minutes and jumps back to 15 minutes repeatedly on spin and drain at 1500 spin
• Consider whether the fault occurs on every load or only on some loads
