Hi all,
Yesterday i noticed the machine had stopped mid cycle, but then finished fine after starting it again. But today its happened again, but this time it stopped again after restarting it.
Im not sure which stage it was at but there was water in there and seemed to be during the wash cycle then all of a sudden the machine just cut out, all lights went out and heard a click.
It still had power though as i was able to just turn the dial and start again.
Does anyone know how i can look for error codes on this particular model? Ive searched but can only seem to find diagnostic mode for other models
Re: Whirlpool AWO/C 7714 Cutting Out Mid Cycle
Could be the pcb power chip failing or perhaps the suppessor fooling about or even the plug into the mains socket: faulty socket and or plug getting hot due to increase of amps on wash/heating cycle? That would give you suddenly no power and not necessarily take out a house trip. The click is the door lock ready to be opened since there is no longer any power to it I should imagine if just one click. The thing is though how long is it before you notice and reset the programme until it begins to work again, immediately or after an hour?
Re: Whirlpool AWO/C 7714 Cutting Out Mid Cycle
Thanks, its a difficult one really. I would say it stops around 15-20 minutes in at a guess. Then the next time it can complete the cycle in one hit.
Are there any simplr DIY checks i can do? Im comfortable taking the machine out and taking bit off if need be
