An Indesit WIL103UK has come my way to play with. It fails as it trys to go into spin and the delay start light flashes which I assume means the heater relay is faulty. Not into these things at component level but assume this is an item on the PCB but where and how easy is it to change?

Re: Possible PCB Repair?
if it is the heater relay no problem
follow heater wires one of them will go back to the board and the connection will lead you to a small black square unit soldered to the pcb ( some can be white )
first check you have not got bad solder joints on the relayDave
Re: Possible PCB Repair?
I wondered!
Leads me to a white component marked OMRON G5LB-1-25. Soldering seems ok so must be worth a go, is this the sort of thing Maplin sells?Cheers,
PhilRe: Possible PCB Repair?
Maplin sell just one 240v relay but Farnell and RS have many and varied types.
Re: Possible PCB Repair?
i use either
or
farnell.co.uk
somewhere on the relay it will give a coil voltage and contact rating

Re: Possible PCB Repair?
Cheers, guys.
Struggling a little as I don’t seem to be able to find an exact match. RS suggest part 683 9160 (G5LE instead of G5LB) but then ask me if I think it’s suitable and I haven’t the foggiest! Also minimum quantity is 5!
Thoughts anyone?

That’s the one…cheap as a portion of chips they are…go for it.:tup:
Re: Possible PCB Repair?
Ok parts on order, £4.95+vat delivery charge though!
All I can say is chips around here cost a lot less!! LOLPhil
Re: Possible PCB Repair?
Open an account with RS to get free next day delivery by parcelforce with no minimum order.
Mike.Re: Possible PCB Repair?
Ok Been in touch with RS and they say that whilst the delivery charge is shown on the invoice it wasn’t actually charged, minimum order on this item is 5.
But…………new relays have arrived and they have only 4 pins, orginal has 5. That can’t be right can it?!!

Re: Possible PCB Repair?
If you look carefully at the old relay and board, you’ll probably find that the, “missing leg” wasn’t actually connected to anything.
Mike.Re: Possible PCB Repair?
For the hell of it I have fitted one of the new relays to the board and I get no motor action at all now and light 4 flashing instead indicating motor tiac fault, looking at the PCB the 5th leg was attached to something. Dave’s pdf seems to suggest there should still be 5 pins on the new relay. All I can do is go back to RS and see what they say. Good fun this component lark!
