    Hi All
    I wonder if any1 could help me.
    My dishwasher HD96M hoover has started tripping RCD in house.

    I am sure that it is relatively new, and maybe under guarantee. I don’t have receipt & can’t even recall where I bought it!

    Before I take a look I wonder if anyone knows how old this model is?
    The Hoover Service line isn’t open beyond 5pm so I can’t ask them.
    Also, does anyone know what may be causing it?

    regards

    Machine was made between April 2003 and May 2004.

    Tripping could be caused by just about anything – leaks into the base, short circuit motor, heater, capacitor, mains suppressor are all candidates.

    Power off, if you’re going to take a peek…….

    thanks penguin45
    I appreciate the switch off bit, I was a maintenance sparky many moons ago and had my fair share of pissers 😯 , since 1989 I’ve been in IT though.

    I didn’ realise that I had the thing so long! The heater element seems to be the offending bit, I’ve disconnected it and no trip occurs. Reconnect it and trips. I’ve only got a multi meter which shows open circuit to ground and element is 27ohms. I don’t have a megger, (just looking actually but they are £90 or so.)
    I suppose it’s cheaper to buy element and hope that it is that causing the trip, unless you have any ideas?
