My hotpoint died the other day I washed a load of mixed colours on coloured 40 and it kept making a knocking sound and I just found that a button was hitting the drum but at the end of cycle it made a popping sound so I just turned it of and thought nothing of it but later in the day when I went to put another load on it just wouldn't turn on but I'm not to fussed at the indesit turns up Tuesday :D

Hi Trey.

It will not turn. I would suspect its the belt has broken or come off. If it is all intact( belt, pullet e.t.c)It could be a problemb with the motor but that is very unlikley. Chris.

Trey, it could be the brushes, if you have trouble sourcing them have a look at what whirlpool are offering, i just got a whirlpool awe6517 washer and its really good :)

It has life!!!!

This morning I check to see if the indesit would roar into life for me and this morning it did its very noisy and I don't think it will last the load but I know it is the brushes as it makes a hell of a racket from that area

Nice to know you know what the problem is. Christophers WMA22A is more broken than we thought!

Good luck with the brushes, fairly simple fix!
