While don't have any personal experience with Asko washers, was able to find following.

General consensus for these machines seems to be "F6" code means to check wiring to motor or replace same.
Don't think Asko washers of this vintage sold in USA ever used 120v, far as one knows Asko washers until rather recent vintage such as the WM6511 otherwise all used 220v power. Then again Asko in USA went through a few owners (including Merloni who gave us the W/D combo unit), so who knows what's out there. People liked Asko washers in USA for one thing because it required only a true 220v connection. This rather than the 220v/120v Miele used before dropping to only true 120v. Found this online: www.midwestdistributing.c... Looking at above parts diagram no mention is made of brushes, just the motor itself. If you want to have a go at service mode: | ||

Am having a faint twinge of memory
Seem to recall reading about that thermistor issue.
Over years a few Asko WM200** models showed up locally on CL, so was doing research before perhaps having a go. These are or were great washing machines, but Asko had issues with them including control board. Of course when machines were new parts were easily found, even if cost dear. Now of course decade or decades after model production ended finding new parts may be difficult. | ||

Wait, I Told A Lie
Asko did sell a washer specifically for North America that ran on 120v power, the WM80-8005.
It was an odd duck in that yes, machine took 120v power, but IIRC there was a rather large transformer inside that stepped up power to 220v. Miele for their W7XX and W10XX washers had their own work around. Creda never sold anything in USA that ran on 120v. www.automaticwasher.org/c... These were rather limited washers IMHO. Only three temp choices with "hot" being limited to 140F. Warm was 50/50 tap hot and cold water, and cold was whatever came out of tap. | ||
