F+P 608 – Poor student needs help

[Dunniz]

hello,

After my washing machine stopped working i called to see how much it would cost for someone to come and fix it, what a rip of. So after some hunting around on this EXCELLENT forum i diagnosed the problem as a faulty cold inlet valve. I replace the valve, and to my dismay the beast did not roar into action. When i check the error code it still gives me the same error (00110001)

and ideas?

Ok, continuity check from board end of wiring loom to valve. If ok, you’re looking for 24v at valve end if you select rinse. No volts = board problem.

thanks,

So here is what i did, turned machine on, advanced wash to rinse cycle, tested voltage at cold valve, voltage was 15.6.

where to from here?

Use your meter to check the resistance of both hot and cold valves.
They should be the same. Try swopping the wiring on the valves, it should be just long enough. Could be a module failure but that fault (where the module is the problem) is normally found in the later model machines. Sorry “Penguin45” but the fill valve voltage on that machine is 12V.
