    Hi,I had a call to this washer.It fills and then stops on all wash programmes!No fault code appears.It will drain and spin when individually selected.Checked heater,that was fine but fitted a new just for elimination as i had one on board.Am i right in thinking it’s most probably the board or timer module?
    any advice please?

    Why go to the bother of fitting a heater when there was nothing wrong with it?

    For the sake of 5mins,i wanted to make double sure it wasn’t the heater.I’ve only been in the trade eight months so it was for my piece of mind!
    thanks

    Hi

    Did you happen to check water inlet valves to ensure one was not open circuit. It uses one valve to carry out initial fill, pauses and continues to fill using other valve to take in soap powder. If this valve is open circuit it will just sit there doing nothing.
    Good indicator would be if the powder was still in draw when it stopped.

    thanks for your reply George, i didn’t check the inlet valves.
    I sourced a refurbed board from emw and that did the trick!
    I’ll give them time to repair it and give them a call to see what the cause was.I checked the heater relay and that was ok.
