My bosch nexxt500 wont rotate the drum, the water pump work but the motor doesnt rotate the drum

Check if the lid isnt working as this prevents a roration . Else must be a loosened or broken belt that rotates the drum as the motor works . Hope this helps

My machine wont stay on wash cycle.it starts turns a few times then turns itself to the "on" mode

If the drum is turning then its most likely the tacho on the back of the motor or the wires connecting the tacho to the control panel. So the motor is turning but the panel can't control the speed so will switch off straight away.
If the drum doesnt turn but you hear the motor kick, then the drum belt is broken...

The dryer heats, motor runs but drum doesnt turn.

Could be one of several things. The drum turns by motor and fan belt around the drum. The most common problem is that the fan belt is broken. Check to see that the drum is free and not bound up by frozen bearings. Also that nothing is jamming the drum. If everything seems to be ok --- you need to check the pulley on the motor shaft and be sure it is tight on the shaft . More than likely -- it is a broken belt. I hope this helped.

Heating works but drum doesnt turn.

Try turning drum, or remove top from dryer to confirm if belt has gone. When turning drum there should be some resistance as the belt fits around the drum

Motor runs but drum doesnt spin

The belt may have broken, you must open the dryer case and check the belt. If broken, you'll see it laying on the bottom

The dryer will not start - the sensing lite comes on, and thats it. the motor doesnt even attempt to turn. the door open lite (in the drum) works with the door switch

sounds like the drum belt is broken there is a cut off switch to prevent the dryer from running/overheating if the belt may break

Drum doesnt turn... motor fine.

From your description I would suspect a broken belt although I am unfamiliar with your model. Once the belt [which transfers drive from the motor to the drum] breaks, it would'nt matter how well the motor runs, it can't turn the drum.
Hope this helps!
