Load stopped mid cycle. Left about 100 - 150 ml of water in the tub.. It seems as though the washing machine stopped at the rinse/spin cycle.. as when testing the different wash and rinse options.. it seemed fine when the water was entering the washer, however when it came time to spin or rince and spin, it made a funny noise, but nothing was spinning.. it started a constant beep and upon opening the lid to the washing machine, there was a smell of something burning.

We have pulled the washing machine apart and there really isnt much to it. The water pump seems fine and the direct drive (where all the coils are) basically looks brand new. Is there anyone that has had a similar problem and can tell me whats wrong with it.. is it an easy and cheap fix - or is it going to be so costly that i should just replace the washing machine with a new one?

Hi Anulka, looks like you have already done a fair amount of first aid on the washing machine and it might make sense to just buy a new one rather than live with one which might create issues in the long run. The issue sounds serious and there is likely to be some internal damage to the machine. You can start shopping at www.myshopping.com.au/PT--281_Washing_Machines and get an attractive option which comes with a couple of years of warranty.
