Hi, I have SW1ASP Samsung 6 kg washing machine. Its washing but not spinning. its try to spin and motor try to pushing to spin but it spin slight and stop. When i jiggle the machine while it try to spin than it spin slowly first than increasing speed. So what problem it has?

Put a gallon of nearly boiling water in it for 30 minutes and then do a wash with nothing in it. That should dissolve the washing powder debris. Then stop using powder and switch to HE liquid detergent.

If that doesn't fully fix it, try a proper descaling solution like CLR or Lime Away.

motor is broken try cleaning bushes easiy fix

something is jammed in water pump

could be motor brushes or capacator

Hi, you will find either the drive belt has stretched slightly so when the unit is under a load the motor pulley slips on the belt. The belt should have some sort of tensioning or you would need it replaced.

The other reason it will not spin is if the motor brushes are worn and need replacing.

Hope this helps.

HI, try to physically spin the drum.there should be some slight resistance but not a lot. if the drum spins freely and, with ease, replace the Motor control board. is has failed in this case.

***Now, if the drum dose not spin freely, this will confirm a failed electric motor.

Remove the hoses and check the impeller of the pump for an obstruction.

You have either a clog in your water pump or it has broke.Most the time it can be fixed by removing the 2 hoses attached and remove all debris.Then make sure it is still working.This will correct the light flashing problem at the same time. Please rate this ~!!!
