Mend Hoover WDM120 Washer Dryer Washing Machine Pump

WDM120 washer dryer, Hoover doesn't empty?

The machine doesn't spin fast, although it does rotate at the slow speed, and at the end of the cycle, water is left in the drum. Pump is working; I've tested it inside and outside the washing machine and filter is clear. Suspecting the pressure switch, but the normal fault is a hole in the pipe which causes overflow rather than this.

What way do the connections go back on? I'm a fool and didn't take note

Look at the controller board next to the motor in the bottom of the machine; if you take this out (three terminals connected) you will see two relays, turn the circuit board over and inspect for dry joints (use a circuit tester from the the edge of the board to each of the relay solder points.. Mine had a dry joint, I resoldered and the machine sprang into live..Cost £0!! :).. Oh make sure you cable tie the wires back otherwise they might get taggled in the motor.

I changed the controller board and the machine worked correctly again.
