Diplomat ADP8332 F1 Fault – What does it mean please

[CarlM]

Hi,
I have an F1 error message on my Diplomat ADP8332 – Can anyone tell me what it means please and what I can do to try and fix it?
Many Thanks
Carl

It generally means that this:

isn’t working.

Can also be poor connections or computer fault.

Power off, if investigating.

Thanks Penguin, Where do I find this part and what does it do? I have to pop out now but will be looking at the machine later this evening. Thanks for your help

Sticking up into the sump, under the filters.

Thanks. Do I get at it from underneath the machine or down through the inside. What does a new one cost and is it worth changing it to see if it works? Is it an easy part to change?

It’s a twist fit from underneath. Click link above for prices etc. It should give a reading in Kohms if testing, but it may still not be working…….

Power off, of course.

Additionally, the power light flashes and the machine beeps continuously while the F1 fault is showing. Does this change the diagnosis? I have taken out all of the filters etc and cleaned everything as well as I can. I have soaked up all the water from in the sump and can see the part sticking up – I don’t think I can get it out by going in from the inside!
Cheers

What does this part do anyhow? Does it just sense the presence of water?

Temperature sensor, using negative thermal co-efficiency coupled to a comparator array in the computer 😯 .

Oh, well why didn’t you say earlier Penguin !!! 😉
If it’s not this part what should I try next – is it time for a new machine do you think?

Re: Diplomat ADP8332 F1 Fault – What does it mean please

Penguin, I’ve ordered a new part as you recommend. I’ll change it if I can and get back to you if I have any problems. Should I continue to use the same thread if I need to get back to you or do I start a new one?
Cheers
Carl

Please keep it in the one thread. Bit of patience is the main thing required. Remove decor door to give yourself better access, mind the sharp edges and ensure that power is off.

Good luck,
Penguin45.

Or in english a resistor that changes value with temperature 😆 :waving:

Thanks Penguin (and Clive). I will get back to you should I hit any problems. I’ve completely rebuilt a washing machine after having to change the drum so this should be a piece of cake!!!!!!!!! I’m sure I’ll hit some sort of problem. You guys have been great – will recommend you to many. Thanks again
