Does it not throw up an error message Rob, even if set to the drying cycle for instance ?

it does if you set it on a dryer and leave it 15 minutes
but it doesnt on the wash, it just stops dead

it is only on the arcadia version though

On behalf of kez,thanks for the info helo 75 turned out to be spot on ,one to file in the memory banks for future use 😀

for future reference guys – and try and keep this in mind

these machines are a real pita

turning themselves on in the middle of the night.. even doing it as you walk past them

anything strange goin on with them, change the ntc … its a common part …. c00083195 (?) its the same ntc as the wash ntc, so its an easy job to just plug one in to see if the fault cures

good luck!
