Hotpoint washing machine - drum not turning?

My washing machine fills with water but the drum is not turning. Any ideas before I get an engineer out which may cost as much as buying a new machine.

Thanks.

Hi Linda
the carbon brushes have worn away so the motor will not turn check the brushes in the motor first

Hello,

Is there any noise at all comming from the machine during wash or spin? Model #?
