    Hi, Been to this machine today that has operated the anti flood.
    I can see it leaking from the top of the fill matrix but I can’t see why its leaking. It starts off filling ok then it seems to fill the matrix up and then appears to leak from the top of the matrix from what looks like an air break.
    I was going to just try a new one but Connect list them At £40+ vat a bit steep when I am not sure that a new one will fix it.
    Cheers,
    Ray

    im not good with model numbers but i fix loads of smegs for leaking on right side. basically its a failure of the o rings where the matrix locates into the sump. i normally remove right side panel and unscrew the disc inside cabinet.
    having removed the matrix i then take off the o rings and build up the thickness on matrix with ptfe tape. this causes the o rings to expand, and with a helping of silicone sealnat i relocate the whole lot and reassemble. never had a failure with this repair.

    Hi Keith, thanks for the reply. I have seen them leaking from the o rings bit this one seems to be leaking from the top of the matrix. It looks like its coming from what appears to be an air break right at the top.
    Cheers,
    Ray
