Some machines test the motor rotation on power up and if this is abnormal they throw a wobbler. Check out the carbon brushes in the motor. Theyre graphite blocks which transfer mains power to the copper segments of the motor - located at the other end of the motor from the drive pulley. Theyre probably worn down.
Also check valve inlet filters, pressure switch, pump and wash filter.
