Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before booking a repair, confirm the door is closing and latching fully, since most units lock the drum if they don't sense a secure door. Should that not clear it, if the door's fine, it's a belt, coupler, or motor issue inside the cabinet, and reaching those parts means partially disassembling the unit — not a first-time DIY job.
