    Initial complaint was of poor/no spin with occasional water left in drum.

    Drain pump is perfect, no blockages of any kind, empties fine.

    Set it to wash and soon noticed it was filling way too high, simple thinks I, blocked pressure chamber or hose.

    Pressure chamber is spotless and pressure hose is clear and undamaged.

    I reset to wash and it filled to within three inches of the top of the door.

    I am going to replace the pressure switch, just wondered if anyone had had a serious overfill on these when the pressure chamber and hose where both OK?

    Jim.

    sadly pressure switch did not sort it, suspect triac for fill valve at fault, it was filling on every setting as soon as it was switched on, even before the door locked.

    Customer not prepared to spend on it. 😥

    TR3 triac Jim, easily replaced (or recon board from EMW). But replace the valve too while you’re there!
