Washer stops during spin or will not spin; E06 appears on the display.

Safety first: Unplug the washer before accessing the motor. The drum and motor can move suddenly.

• Step 1 – Access the motor:
  • Remove the rear panel of the Arctic washer.
  • Remove the drive belt from the motor pulley and drum pulley.
  • Unplug the motor connector and remove the mounting bolts to slide the motor out.
• Step 2 – Inspect wiring and tachometer:
  • Check the motor connector for corrosion or burnt pins.
  • Inspect the small tachometer coil at the rear of the motor for cracks or loose fit.
• Step 3 – Check carbon brushes (if fitted):
  • On universal motors, remove the brush holders and inspect the carbon brushes.
  • If they are shorter than about 1 cm or unevenly worn, replace both brushes with Arctic-compatible parts.
• Step 4 – Test tachometer coil (advanced):
  • Measure resistance across the tachometer terminals; typical values are 100–200 Ω (check service data).
  • Open circuit or very high resistance indicates a faulty tachometer.
• Step 5 – Reassemble and test:
  • Reinstall the motor, reconnect the harness, and refit the belt with correct tension.
  • Run a spin-only program to verify operation.
• If E06 remains, the main control board motor drive circuit may be defective and should be checked by a professional.
