Where is the eeprom fitted?I have a spare module for the bottom does this have eeprom on it looks like socket for it near diagnostic point.Strange cos this socket is not on original
Re: Hotpoint washer dryer wd420
When you say you have a spare power module, is that from the same type of machine, the eeprom is sometimes soldered onto the module and sometimes it can be unplugged and replaced onto another module.
Also this machine should generate error codes via the vertical row of neons on the left of the facia, are any of these flashing? Even though it spins a fault in the motor itself or module connections can cause this symptom as well.Well worth remembering that your machine will be covered by the manufacturers 5 year parts gaurantee, a steep labour charge but better than the possible risk of doing more harm than good yourself.
You are correct in your assumption as to the positions of the two modules.
There are three different eeproms for this model range depending on type of dryer assembly fitted or whether or not the machine is H&C or Cold fill only.
