ParticipantAs above, removed lid and reset thermostat several times but keeps doing it. Any suggestions?

If it is an early version it will need to up rated thermostat modification (part no. 41024208). The preset temp has been increased from 172C to 182C. That stops ‘nuisance tripping’. 😀

Hi there,
There’s two thermostats – one with red wires and one with purple. It was the red one that was the nuisance so I replaced that with the uprated thermostat as advised and everything seemed fine for a few washes/drys.
The thermostat with purple wires is now tripping – and when I reset that the switch in my fuse box trips!
Should I replace that thermostat too with the uprated one?
Any advice much appreciated.

Hello bump:D
Trip circuit breaker means an earth leak so probably the heating element/s need checking (with a Megger preferably).

The trip circuit seems to be a one off, think the fact my Mrs had everything in the kitchen on the same time may have had something to do with it 😆
Would you recommend changing the next thermostat? Or getting someone in?

Bump, second thermostat keeps clicking off – is it safe to replace that too?
