7.5 -> hi I'm Matt from espares in this video
10.08 -> I'll show you what to do if your Hoover
12.059 -> washing machine is displaying the error
14.28 -> code e08 now this error code indicates
18.06 -> that there is a problem with the motor
19.88 -> and or the motor speed sensor now if
24.3 -> either of these are faulty you're going
26.16 -> to need to replace the motor itself but
28.92 -> don't worry I'll show you exactly how to
31.019 -> do this step by step
33.48 -> to complete the fix you're going to need
35.64 -> a seven millimeter nut Runner and a 10
39.42 -> mil socket with a ratchet
41.7 -> it's also a good idea to use a pair of
43.559 -> safety gloves to protect your hands in
45.6 -> case of any sharp edges now if you don't
48.059 -> have these to hand we have provided a
50.039 -> link in the description of where you can
51.84 -> get your hands on them it's also a good
54.12 -> idea to have a towel to hand as well in
57.42 -> case you drop the motor
59.699 -> our safety first always unplug an
63.059 -> appliance before carrying out any work
65.76 -> to access the motor we need to remove
68.1 -> this back panel by undoing the six
71.46 -> screws using our seven mil nut Runner
89.34 -> to the left of the motor is the motor
92.4 -> plug and the Earth wire disconnect both
95.28 -> of these
96.42 -> okay
101.159 -> next we need to remove the belt that
103.92 -> runs around the motor spindle and the
106.74 -> pulley up here to do that simply turn it
109.86 -> and pull it towards you
111.84 -> so the grooves of the belt are unhooked
114.899 -> from the grooves on the motor spindle
118.86 -> until you can remove it fully
127.86 -> undo the two 10 millimeter bolts using
132.66 -> your 10 millimeter socket and Ratchet
152.4 -> now it's a good idea to introduce the
155.76 -> towel underneath the motor so when you
160.08 -> pull it out
164.12 -> it can drop onto the towel before you
167.519 -> then pull it completely out of the
169.8 -> machine
170.94 -> the motor is held in place at the front
173.519 -> by these two fittings at the top it's
176.7 -> also the same at the back now they can
179.94 -> be a little tight so you're going to
181.379 -> need some Force to ease it away from
184.44 -> these fittings
187.98 -> once the motor is free from the fittings
190.08 -> you can lift it out in the gap between
193.14 -> the drum and the cabinet
196.92 -> now that you've removed the old motor
198.9 -> it's time to fit the new one now we've
202.14 -> Linked In the description below to
203.94 -> replacement motors to find the correct
206.519 -> one for your washing machine you're
208.44 -> going to need the make and model number
210.659 -> of your Appliance if you're unsure where
212.94 -> to find this check out our video here
215.28 -> which takes you through exactly how to
217.68 -> find the make and model number of your
219.72 -> machine
221.04 -> once you have your new motor ready you
223.68 -> can line it up
224.94 -> with the two molded pegs at the bottom
229.44 -> of the drum here and the same with the
232.319 -> front you should feel the motor lock
234.54 -> into place
246.18 -> with the motor securely on all four pegs
249.36 -> you can now refit the bolts
263.52 -> foreign
265.199 -> with the motor securely in place you can
268.8 -> now refit the belt now start with the
271.62 -> bottom so make sure the grooves of the
274.02 -> belt wrap around the grooves on the
276.78 -> motor spindle and then you can work it
279 -> around the pulley turning the pulley
281.4 -> until the belt is tight now it's worth
284.16 -> mentioning that do not get your fingers
287.22 -> behind the pulley when it's turning as
289.919 -> you can cause your fingers real damage
291.9 -> to do take it nice and slow
294.84 -> and make sure the belt is firmly in
297.6 -> place
320.28 -> you can now plug in the motor plug and
323.34 -> your Earth wire
327.78 -> foreign
333.74 -> the back of your washing machine
336.72 -> now before you refit the back panel do
338.94 -> make sure that you have removed the
341.039 -> towel
342.06 -> from inside the washing machine
356.639 -> so there we have it now that the motor
358.259 -> has been replaced on your Hoover washing
