Just a quick question here…
Could a PCB Module and Front control panel from a sealed drum WF340 be installed into a WF340 which has a split drum?
Thanks in advance
Cod
Re: Hotpoint WF series
Different part numbers for both PCB’s
If I am not mistaken the spin direction is different on the two drums, possibly to allow for the different sump hose positions. :con:

I see, reason i ask is i have accumulated a number of these sealed tub models, (all with bearings shot), and thinking of ways to use the working parts. 😉
Re: Hotpoint WF series
I was a bit surprised they should have different pcbs so I checked on Connect. The WE model and the S/C model both come up with the same “not programmed” main board. There does seem to be some confusion over the fascia boards, both of two alternatives being listed for the S/C but only one for the WE. However, apart from programming, the differences appear to be in the number of selectors, 2 or 3. It’s a simple job to transfer the selectors over. I’ve done it when using a s/h board.
Are the fascia boards programmed? I thought they got that from the main board.

I stand to be corrected by johnnyj or helo_75 but I am sure the spin direction is different on the screwed and welded drums, there must be a reason for that and using a different Main PCB would surely reverse the spin direction. :con:

Re: Hotpoint WF series
Yes Jim the split drums spin clockwise and the welded spin anticlockwise, different motors in each, the boards are the same but have to be programmed for the correct type cheers JJ
Re: Hotpoint WF series
💡 Maybe codlets could negotiate a deal from EMW for reprogramming the boards as a job lot? Maybe change them to cover a range of models.
