Bosch WFO2466GB Washing Machine Drum Stopped Working

I will try and help with this problem about Bosch WFO2466GB Washing Machine,

Hi Pedro, I'm sorry to hear about the issue with your Bosch WFO2466GB washing machine. When the drum stops turning, it can be caused by several factors. Let’s go through the most common causes and potential solutions. I've included exploded diagrams, spare parts, and related videos on turning/starting issues with Bosch WFO2466GB washing machine below that might help you.

One common issue is a broken or loose drive belt. The drive belt connects the motor to the drum, enabling it to spin. Over time, the belt can wear out, become loose, or snap altogether. If the drum isn’t turning, the first thing to check is the condition of the drive belt. You can do this by unplugging the machine, removing the back panel, and inspecting the belt. If it appears damaged or loose, replacing it should solve the problem.

Another possibility is a problem with the motor itself. If the motor has burnt out or is experiencing electrical issues, it won’t be able to turn the drum. You might notice a humming noise when the washing machine tries to start a cycle, but the drum doesn’t move. In this case, the motor would need to be tested and possibly replaced.

Additionally, the issue could be with the motor brushes. These brushes transfer electricity to the motor and can wear down over time. When they wear out, the motor can lose power and stop turning the drum. Replacing the motor brushes is a relatively straightforward repair that can restore functionality.

A malfunctioning door lock or interlock can also cause the drum to stop turning. If the machine thinks the door is open, it will prevent the drum from spinning for safety reasons. Ensure that the door is closing properly and that the interlock is working. If the door lock mechanism is faulty, it will need to be replaced.

Lastly, check for any obstructions or blockages that might be preventing the drum from turning. Items of clothing or debris caught between the drum and the outer tub can cause it to jam. Ensure the drum is free to move by rotating it by hand with the machine turned off.

I hope this helps you understand the potential causes and solutions for the drum not turning on your washing machine. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to reach out.
