my washing machine does not start?

i own a Siemens-siwamatXT850, washing machine, during normal running the machine stoped. From that time on it does not work even if i hear some clicking noise (like relays). is there any electric diagram of that type of machine or some advice?

thank you very much for your help, you gave an idea and i dismantled the motor and checked the carbon brushes. they were worn so i changed them and the machine now works.
thanks again!!!!!!!

if you have the ability you will have to establish if the machine is getting mains voltage,it will enter via 3 core lead to filter then to on/off switch to door interlock and back to programmer, do a good visual it may even be down to a burned terminal ,if it has blown a fuse you will need a meter to find which component is down to earth. if that machine is quite old it may have leaked through the water pump and fused . if the fuse has blown check all components with an earth terminal for down to earth

it stopped before spin, after that it does not start in any position of the programming button.

you dont say at what point it stops, does it heat the water in main wash, if its hot and cold fill are both supplys filling, as i cant remember all model numbers if its an older model and washes but wont spin you will have worn carbon brushes in the motor, hope this is of some help
