how can I fix Zanussi WJS1397W washer drier?

Machine is connected to hot and cold water supply.Now even on a B cycle (95 degree ) the water inside the machine is cold although you can feel water running through both hoses as the machine fills. Also controller takes only 4 minutes to move from B to H. Have renewed controller and have same problems. HELP

Machine is taking in water,drum turning in wash cycle (but for a sorter time), spin and draining water out as normal through proper outlet waste hose. Inlet hoses are same way around as prior to any fault. If you switch off power to machine 3 minutes into B cycle and open the door of the machine water is at same temp as cold water supply. Thanks for your time and assistance ck.
On B cycle machine should be taking in hot and cold water at the same time. Are there solinoid valves which open to let in water? If so maybe I have sticking hot water valve. But even if only cold water was feeding machine surely the heater element would bring this up to 95 degres for boil wash. If water temp problem was solved would this fix quick time controller is taking through wash cycle. B cycle wash 3 rinses spin should take aprox 110 min.

is the motor working?.select spin and see if there is any motor action.if not remove the motor brushes and see if they are worn out.remove the bottom large tub hose and check if there is anything in there blocking it up
