The drum stops turning and then over heats. Sometimes a maual turn of the drum will fix the problem, but it appears to be getting worse.

check drive belt tension and condition of belt. Some machines are fitted with an induction motor - needs a component called a start capacitor or sometimes a start relay to set it in motion. If the starter component is faulty the motor cant get the kick it needs to get going. Replace capacitor or start relay.

Repair and service your own washing machine. Go to www.2ndwave.co.uk/manual.html
