Diplomat ADP 8132

[edz]

I have a Diplomat ADP 8132 dishwasher that went bang mid cycle.

I bought replacement heater element and fitted.

Whilst fitting I moved around a small lipstick sized thing that had broken out of its plastic shell and started to flake a tiny bit. Not sure what it was parked it out of the way carefully.

When turned on the machine again big bang.

Have I now blown up a perfectly good element?

Was the lipstick thing a safety cut out module that had failed?

The wires go to a plug and off in a couple of directions so not sure if it it is a consumable part or nothing at all.

Will I have blown anything else up?

Thanks in advance for the helpful help

Ed Hi

Unfortunately I doubt you are going to get many answers on here as there are now two many variables to the problem to correct deduce the fault.

Yes it is possible you have blown the replacement element but I would not have thought it the most likely thing.

It is possible the item your talking about when referring to the lipstick sized item was one of the thermostats and if it is, it certainly shouldn’t be in sections, so it is possible that was the cause of the problem.

It is also possible to have blown other components after the failed repair. On this occassion, I suspect your going to need the assistance of an experienced technician to sort it out.

Use the repairs@ facility on the Navigation Pane on the left of this screen to locate someone close to you.

Good luck with your endeavours.
