Candy CFD612-80

Looking for the ntc on this machine, I’m presuming its the small probe in the right hand side of the sump which needs the motor moving to get at 👿 .
Anyone have a part number for it?
The fault code shows no heat which I wrongly diagnosed as the heater (thought it showed o/c on original), its behind a badly lit gym reception desk with lycra shorts everywhere 😳 and in my ‘cordoned off area’ someone kept leaning over using the sink next to me 😈 .
Can’t see anything visible with the board but at £160 from Connect I aint going there. Suspecting this is another on a slow boat to nowhere.

Re: Candy CFD612-80

what worries me here is you say fault is no heat but there normally is a seperate error code for the ntc

i would suspect the heater relay on the pcb
to be certain you need to do one of the following

1 change the relay
2 find the coil connections on the pcb and test voltage to relay while machine is running. if its a 12v relay you would expect over 8v when its energised ( alter if voltages sre different)
manufacturers have a habit of undervolting relays. they put 8v on a 12v coil. when relay is new it will pull in but as it gets older relay cant make it

hope it helps

Don’t worry thats my job 😀

Getting a nice collection of ntcs’ together for slaving out and just wanted one plug and check this one.
Still convinced the heater tested o/c but I was distracted to say the least.
The board is def at fault but with my poor gigs I’m not testing on a live board 🙁 BUT a new one from Connect is showing at £162.50 😯
plus vat it’s not going to be a viable repair.

Re: Candy CFD612-80

solder 2 wires on the board on the low voltage coils contacts to the heater relay
resecure board and put a volt meter on it and watch

or find an old board and swop heater relay you have not got a lot to lose
