Siemens washer dryer - spinning causes electricity to trip

[volkist]

Hi folks,
Siemens washer dryer (model wk14d541gb) caused electricity to trip for the first time yesterday. Everything was okay during the last wash cycle and towards the end of spinning the problem occured. Now, when the machine tries to spin, a strange noise comes and the electricity trips. Please see the video I uploaded to YouTube:

You can hear the noise. The noise is there even when I manually spin it when the machine is off. Could you please let me know what the issue may be and how I may sort it out? Many thanks in advance!

The two issues, may not be connected....

The noise, might be drum bearings, or something (bra-wire?) trapped between inner and outer drums.

The tripping, might be due to carbon, from wear of the motor brushes. Try brushing it out and/or blowing it out with compressed air.
