Hoover Wdm150 Drum Wont Turn
This machine although old has hardly been used and was working fine.
The drum does not move during any cycle, I have cleared the filter at the bottom kick plate.
I have checked the black hose on the bottom for blockages.
I have removed the top and checked for bad connections from the control block
I have checked that the motor cables are not lose.
The belt is intact and I can manually turn the drum
I don't know if the problem is the motor or the switch block or something else.
The machine fills and empties and blows hot air. The switch/Dial does not turn automatically as it should, when I manually turn it slightly it starts the next phase of the cycle but without the drum moving.
I don't know if the dial wont turn because the drum has not turned.
What could cause this?

Hi, with a fault like that, if the article doesn't help it can't be anything straight forward so I have to advise getting an engineer. I covered everything I can think of to help in it.

I have read that article thanks, my drum does not revolve at any stage, and the dial does not click through the cycle by itself but will change mode when i manually turn it, but still no drum action
also just unscrewed the white bottle with a black hose from the bottom rear of the drum, blew in it and could hear the click on and off
