Miele W1-WMB120 user manual

There could be several reasons why your Miele W1 washing machine is not spinning:
1. Problem with Load Balance: The most common problem is that the load is unbalanced. Check if the machine is overloaded.
2. Blocked Filter: If the filter or drain is blocked, the machine might not spin.
3. Faulty Motor: It could also be a problem with the motor. If there's a burn smell or if the machine doesn’t spin with any load, it might be the motor.
4. Belt Issues: The belt could have slipped off or may have snapped.
5. Control Board Problems: The issue could be with the control board not sending the signal to the motor to run properly.
6. Faulty Door Lock: If the door doesn’t shut or lock properly, the machine could stop mid-cycle or might not spin due to safety functions.
7. Software issue: Sometimes, resetting the machine can fix a software glitch that is affecting the spin cycle.
Call a technician if you cannot identify the problem or you are unfamiliar with how to fix the machine. Always remember to unplug your washing machine before attempting any repairs.
