    Hi everyone a noobie but handy with a driver and a (photocopier tech).
    Above model approx 2 years old and now washes ok but leaves dishes cold and wet so suspect thermostat or element is this an easy job or can I do a diagnostic check first 😥 cheers

    Almost for sure the element, it uses this one:

    Continuity testing it is the only way to be sure.

    Re: Beko DW603

    I have no clue how you’re measuring that but, using live mains is a very bad and dangerous practice that we cannot condone on here or someone will end up killing themselves!

    There’s no call to do it with mains power at all.

    Explained here: http://www.wikihow.com/Test-a-Heating-Element

    But that open of the stat on it open and, it’s in technical terminology, knackered.

    I used a fluke multi meter and am experienced photo copier technician dealing with mains faults on a regular basis so know what I am doing. But I am confused by your reply, what stat? are you saying the nts is knackered?

    Yes, if memory serves that safety stat is a one shot one so, if it goes, new element.

    Re: Beko DW603

    There is a safety stat built into the heater itself or should be, then another thermistor or thermostat depending on the setup to control operating temperature.
