Candy CM462 a/w

[Penguin45]

Customer complaint – machine not starting. Bit of tinkering reveals that the machine will run and complete drain, spin and rinse cycles. On all other programmes, the machine will fill to level, do one slow tumble and then stop……

Heater and motor check out, so pcb or selector switch thingy seem to be the most likely candidates.

Ideas?

Re: Candy CM462 a/w

All I can say is have you checked if heater is getting a feed? Presumably it isn’t. So it’s module, p/sw or selector sw. or wiring. Can’t find your model on Connect so presume it’s a new one. Selector switch sounds like it should be cheap, would try that first for that reason. And also because they have been so unreliable on Hoover machines in the past. If it makes no difference this time round, there’s a chance you’ll eventually use it on another job. Or maybe just dismantle it / or spray it with switch cleaner.

Heh – I don’t know everything, never have, never will. Perhaps I have the gift of telling people what I do know quite well….?

Anyway, have found a selector switch, so I’ll try that tomorrow (Today!) and see what happens.

Selector switch has done the trick. Weird….
