EU Zanussi F1232 NOT SPINNING
Hi there,
After any help we can get really - we have an EU Zanussi F1232 washing machine, the problem is that the spin stops after a few seconds, it tries a few times and then then completely aborts the cycle.
Here is a video of the attempted spin in action:
Can anybody diagnose the fault from the video?
Many thanks in advance.

Check the motor to see if the tacho magnet has come loose or come off. More details here about tacho coil and magnet - note it's a different brand but they all work on same principle and all motors look quite similar these days. Your video was able to be downloaded. If I write an article about this specific fault can I use the video to demonstrate please?
Let me know how you get on.
