Today, during the spin cycle, the drum slowly stopped and started to turn very slowly, as if it was stuck. There was still time left for spinning. You stopped the washing machine, took out the laundry, and tried to manually spin it, but it was very difficult due to some kind of brake. Then, you started an alternative program without laundry, but the drum started to turn in the opposite direction with a squeak before stopping again. You tried to manually spin it inside the drum, but there was no casing and it required a lot of force.
