If motor is turning its not seized? check bad motor coupler or worn broken belt, door switch
Belt fine it is the drum that will not turn even by hand motor also fine
when u say motor is running, u mean when the drum is not hooked up with the belt? of belt driven, however if direct drive? when the motor is turning the tub should be turning also? other wise u have a bad motor coupler or worse yet bad tranny? Im tempted to say a bearing has seized in the drum or tranny itself? perhaps a spin bearing? you can remove the clutch and motor from unit and turn the transmission by hand manually to see if it has seized?

do you actually see the motor spinning? or think you hear it, check the belt hasn't come off, or gone slack, it needs to be fairly tight but not too tight, if the belt and pulley go round but the drum doesn't then you have serious damage and need a new inner drum hope i have helped and if i can help more get back to me, i am an appliance engineer of 20 years

I have similar problem with same model unit, found brushes on motor worn to point copper contact is hitting and scoreing commutator. Easy checked, ensure power completely disconnected, lie machine on side and gently rotate drum looking in side the motor. The commutator is what looks like a circular block of copper segments which will rotate with the drum and should be evenly worn and coated with carbon from the brushes. If you see a clean copper area, usually in the center, then the brushes are worn down below workable levels. Suggest replacing should resolve problem.

I had the same problem. My husband checked the carbon brushes attached to the motor and ran the machine on spin. The brushes were sparking so he assumed they were worn and replaced them and hey presto machine works fine now. The brushes cost 23.99 and were just bought from a local shop but can be bought online cheaper. Hope this helps solve your problem. Essex
