well, rember my last post about the beko and i mentioned the motor didn't sound to healthy. well last week i noticed that the motor had become louder and the wash action had become lazier, tonight it was doing a spin and it was making a lot of clicking sounds so i looked under the machine and my suspicions were confirmed there was sparks coming of the motor! my question is why is this happening and will beko fix it for free or what. cause i'm just about to give up on this machine, roll on next year so we can get our lovely new hotpoint.

Sounds like a classic case of worn brushes to me. If it's not the brushes then it's probably something much more serious such as the armature. Hope that helps, Tom. | ||

I forgot to mention, I would strongly advise not to use the machine whilst it is doing this, eventually it will short circuit and cook the electronics. | ||

well, the repair man came yesteday and ran the diagonstic mode on the machine to see if i would report a fault but it didn't anyways he took one of the brushes out a shaved a little off the top of it, and the machine is still acting a bit freaky the noise of it on spin is unbearable and the sparking of the motor hasn't stopped its gotten worse and the cloths are not getting spun properly either. does anyone know what could be wrong with it?

another repair man is coming out on monday to install a new motor on the beko as it getting worse, on the upside i found out about the diagnostic mode which when set to spin it jumps straight up to 1000rpm without like an induction motor machine so if im ever having trouble getting it to balance a load i can set it to this spin and it wil spin straight away without distributing which i think is much better than waiting for a half and hour just to get it to spin.
