Why your washer is drum not turning
The motor hums for the full cycle but the drum never moves, and it turns freely by hand with the power off — that is the washer reporting something specific, not a vague fault.
Causes, in the order we check them
- 01A drive belt that's broken
- 02A motor coupling that's failed
- 03A drum bearing that's seized
Quick checks worth doing
Worth ruling out yourself first: confirm the door's closing and latching fully, since most units lock the drum out if they don't sense a secure door. If you want a firmer read on it, check the filter and the visible section of drain hose for a blockage you can clear yourself. Should that not resolve it, if the door's fine, it's a belt, coupler, or motor issue inside the cabinet, and reaching those means partial teardown — not a first attempt without the right tools.
First we test the washer end to end, so you're not paying to swap parts on a guess. Each of these presents the same way from the outside, so the diagnosis is what separates them.
What St. Johns's climate does to a washer
Anyone who has serviced a washer in St. Johns for a few seasons can predict which parts go first. Humidity is the quiet variable here: it lengthens drying cycles, keeps gaskets wet, and accelerates everything downstream of both. On a St. Johns job we check for the wear this environment causes, so the fix holds past the next heat wave.

Common questions
Answered before you call.
What if the same issue comes back?
Every repair carries an 18-month labor warranty and a 90-day parts warranty. If the same issue returns in that window, we come back at no charge.
What does the diagnosis involve?
First the fault is reproduced and measured, then you get an explanation of the failure in plain terms and what putting it right requires. Nothing is replaced on a guess.
How do I know if it is worth repairing?
Yes. Some failures cost more to put right than the remaining life of the unit justifies, and a technician who has just measured the fault is the person best placed to tell you which case you are in.
Do you use OEM parts?
Genuine parts where the repair calls for them — and an honest answer when a component is discontinued and the only route is an equivalent.
