If there is power and all your lights are lighting up but you get no responce from the machiene eg no spin, water filling, wash cycle or drain then it will be the sensor for the lid it will have coroded but this is an easy fix , I hope this helps

Your motor controller board is faulty and has no motor movement.

I says power cut restarting in 10 seconds I'm sorry, it is the board, the switch mode power supply is dying. Every time it starts to do something it power cuts. Best to get a new motor controller board, Quote the 6 digit part number under the bar code to get the right part.

It sounds like an 11 series machines, When power supply gets warm it stops. You will need a technician to fix the power supply in the brown board.

You need to read the error code and tell me what lights are on

Here are some details for fault code 37 37. (00100101) Pump Blocked Error (No change in the water level) While draining, the water level reading from the pressure sensor has not changed for over 3 minutes. There are three likely reasons for this fault. One is that the drain hose or the pressure switch hose has been squashed or kinked and the pump out rate has been dramatically reduced. The second possibility is that the pump is partially or fully blocked. The third is that the pump is not operating due to Motor Control Module, wiring or pump failure. This fault could also appear if the machine is pumping to an unusually high head of drain hose or into an extended length of drain hose. The fourth possibility is a diverter valve fault or blockage, water level is not altering as the diverter is stuck in the recirculation mode, giving the module the appearance the pump is not lowering the water level. Primary Source: Action:1) Pump System. Check that the drain hose has not been kinked. 2) Check the length of the drain hose and try to reduce the length if excessively long. A 39.36in / 1 metre extension hose of the same diameter fitted to the existing drain hose is the maximum allowable length. 3) Check for open circuit windings in the pump. (Note: Pumps are fitted with a thermal cut-out, which will reset on cooling.) 4) If the basket is empty of water, remove the pump from the pump housing and check that it is not blocked. Also check the drain hose is not blocked. 5) If the basket contains water, then service the pump from the top of the machine by removing the top deck and inner basket. Bail out the water, remove the pump cap and hood and clear the restriction. Secondary Source: Wiring. Action: Tertiary Source: Action: 1) Check the pump harness is connected correctly to the pump. 2) Check continuity of the pump harness. Motor Control Module module. Activate the pump by operating the machine in spin mode. Check the pump is rotating. If it is not operating, and Primary and Secondary checks have been performed, then replace the Motor Control Module.

The pump may not be seating tight against the bucket, There are four bolts on the gal plate you can tighten to make pump seat tighter on the bucket.

Try running running it MT on smaller load setting a few time,s then do a smaller then you had been doing load of close. I belive yr getting or have got.water.past the.shaft seal,s. So maybe wth smaller load.inclueding.water setting you may see some change i.e. no more black speacks. Sorry.about my spelling. Am.still new

You need to get hold of a multi-meterand check the resistance of the pump, It should be 33ohms or close to it, the pump is part of the power circuit and the machine will appear dead if it has blown or is unplugged, If the machine was running without the earth wire to the pump connected and the pump had a fault/blockage there is a very good chance that it has blown the motor controller module. It requires the earth to provide a fault path to earth.

Hi just read your posting.Now I know you supplied the model number in your posting but could you please supply the name of the machine which should be written on the control panel.Is it an ENDURO or an ESPRIT --etc--?Please reply with additional information and I can help you rectify this problem.Looking forward to your reply.
