Bosch SGS4012GB/01 dial operated
dishwasher randomly trips it can complete some cycles or all it will heat water drain and fill correctly. I went to inspect the actuator but accidentally broke it and have replaced it with a genuine bosch one. One time it fully completed and I turned it off using the machines on/off button yet 5 secs later it tripped the RCD. Terminals all look fine no signs of corrosion no water underneath the machine suppressor looks good no cracks or leakage. The run capicitor for the motor looks slightly oily at the top but isn’t bulging and read OL measuring resistance on multimeter I don’t have a capacitance setting so I can’t test that.
Would a faulty capicitor cause my machine to behave like this ?
never had one do it but there is always a first time
you need to check resistance to earth as that is what an RCD looks at

Hi dave sorry mixed up on the rcd, it’s tripping the MCB. So MCB is wired to a mains switch that has a fuse and then wired to dishwasher.
so something is causing a circuit overload ?just checking
some later boards ud RCBO’s which combine the RCD and MCB. if yours is one of these then the hard part is deciding why its trippingDave
