    Does it attempt to spin up at all?
    Does it spin up at any other point in the cycle (should it)??


    When you moved, did you put the transit bolts back in, and if you did, did you remember to remove them again?


    Are there any banging noises coming from the unit, or does the drum look as though its moving about more?

    Yes it does the normal spin during the cycle in both directions.

    Nope didnt use the transit bolts

    No banging noises and drum seems normal.

    Just phoned Beko customer services and they advised about checking the filter, which you guys also recommended, but like I said that seems clear.

    They have asked me to do a factory reset so will try this later and let all you good people know the outcome.

    Thank you for all your help guys

    When our machine stopped spinning it was the brushes. I found myself a nice washing machine repair man who charged £30 including parts to fix it, which was a whole lot less than a few hundred pounds on a new machine that I thought we'd have to spend.

    When my washing machine stopped spinning it was the brushes that were worn down.

    My machine also had that same problem just 3 weeks ago. It's a 10 year old machine that looked like it was trying to work but just couldn't spin.

    It was the carbon brushes. Replaced them and it works perfectly now.
    :footie:
    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p
  • Just wanted to update the post, its seems like a factory reset did the job, although I bet the brushes will also need replacing soon.

    Factory reset was basically, unplugging the machine for a minimum of two hours then switching it on and holding the start button for ten seconds until it flashed.

    All working now.

    Thanks again guys :)
