The machine goes through a wash cycle but will not spin. I have tried selecting the spin only function with no clothes loaded but it still does not spin. I checked the motor brushes and although worn they seemed ok. I renewed them anyway. I have removed the rubber tube from the underside of the pressure switch, but no "click" was heard. Tried spin cycle with the rubber tube removed but no difference. Any more suggestions?

Bosch Classixx washes but will not spin

The problem
The Bosch Classixx completed wash cycles but would not enter spin, even on a spin-only programme with the drum empty.
Likely cause
No definite fault was confirmed. The discussion suggests the easy user-accessible checks had already been done and that any further diagnosis would likely involve replacing parts without clear proof of failure.
What fixed it
The accepted reply advised that the poster had done all they reasonably could and that continuing would probably mean guess-buying parts. No specific repair or confirmed fix was provided.
Checks to try
  • Tried spin-only cycle with no clothes loaded
  • Checked motor brushes
  • Renewed motor brushes
  • Removed the rubber tube from the underside of the pressure switch
  • Noted no click from the pressure switch when the tube was removed
  • Tried a spin cycle with the rubber tube removed
Parts or tools mentioned
  • Motor brushes
  • Pressure switch tube

Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

I would say you've done all you can to be honest, and pursuing it further is likely to involve guess-buying a part, which may or may not work.
