Yeah, lube the pump with turbine oil before spending money and time on anything else. I pop out the screw (the screw is staring at you when looking at the pump at eye level) and squirt some turbine oil while the machine is in the spin cycle. Squeeze the oil in there slowly or it will ooze out and find its way to the pump belt.
If the belts are really old or worn, they will grip instead of slip, causing the motor cycle the protection circuit. |
