Help with wash machine error code.
History:
3 weeks ago machine (Candy GO 1482) stopped working, I replaced the carbon brushes and all was ok again. Now 2 weeks later i get an error code 8 and according to google.
• Check motor connector block
• Check wiring
• Check tacho connections
• Check motor
Now that certainly coincides with me taking the motor out and replacing the brushes however I am sure the connections were ok.
As just recently out of hospital I wont be able to haul the machine out for a day or 2 so just trying to get a checklist ready and I am sure the connections were ok however I can recheck connections. Is there anything else I can check at that time? Other than checking connections I am at a loss.Basically what happens is cycles start and then eventually end up on the flashing error code.
The machine drains spins individually but not as part of the programmed cycle.Re: Error code Candy GO 1482
If all of the wiring connections are Ok then remove the new brushes you fitted and examine the contact face ends of the brushes.
They should be smooth and shiny. If the ends of the brushes or even just one of the brushes is not shiny and looks dark and pitted then either the motor is shot or you have used poor quality copies of the original brushes.Candy/Hoover machines have been using Chinese made motors for some time now and they do seem to be of inferior quality to the earlier Italian made motors.
