The motor on my Hotpoint WMA35 1100 stopped working suddenly, i.e. it didn't deteriorate. Have checked the brushes and there's loads of carbon left. Another reply I read suggested checking the response from the tacho. Is a faulty tacho a possibility and how do I check it? Failing this is it likely to be the control panel at fault?
