Just a thought, is the start button stuck on all the time or shorted?

Timer’s gone or cycle switch. The timer has been switched to a PCB now, not sure of the part number right now but will get back with it, or you could phone Hobart spares on 07002303303. Very easy to fit, just make sure you take your time and put the wires in the right positions. The old mechanical timer has got numbered poles, just match them to the poles on the PCB. Then you set the dip-switches to the right setting (all on the instruction leaflet) and the thing that catches most people out is the jumper from one of the terminals to one of the connections on the barrel switch. Again, can’t remember the exact positions, but there’s a sheet with all you need to know with the new timer. VERY EXPENSIVE!!! The cycle switch is the white button with a clock picture on it, two wires on the back, may be making a constant circuit?
The Hobart’s cycle is, turn barrel switch to ‘on’ position, wait for it to heat the rinse tank, then it’ll fill. When it’s full of water and heated, turn the switch to the plate setting for example, it’ll run through the wash cycle (and take in detergent), empty, fill with water again and then take in rinseaid and do a rinse cycle, then stop.
