ZWH 7149 P won't agitate.

Either one of these.

Control board has failed.
Control knob has failed.
Motor has failed.
Motor controller has failed.
If you can hear the motor turning, the coupler has failed.

You need a service call to get correct diagnostics and warranty on the repair.

The video _may_ help?

Zanussi zwh 6160p

This is not a real solution because it is impractical. But it may work. The machine has different sensor. One or more and not receiving the proper signals. Some sensors are like push in buttons. If they are not pressed the machine won't work or will just jump to end cycle. Since you mentioned it does works when you move the machine. It indicates a sensor may be loosen the drum bounces and when cloth is unevenly distributed it hits hard and the machine makes loud noises BUMP BUMP so my theory is a sensor is loosen and needs to be reattach . Only do it yourself if you have some experience taking things apart. Good luck. Anyways my impractical solution was to put two pieces of wood in only 2 of the 4 corners of washer and trying it this way the drum will be tilt and has more chances of pressing sensor.

Fixing a belt to a Zanussi Condenser Dryer

when you say "only one pulley...", are you counting the motor as one? there should also be a tensioner pulley...look for it somewhere near the motor.
