hi folks want to pick your brains,wma66 has no drum action at all.ran a test sequence(supplied by jim,thanks) and showed error E31.ive checked motor all ok,checked wiring around concrete weight had rubbed but not all the way through.scrutinized both power board and chopper board no signs of blown tracks or burnt out components,any suggestions,thanks
Re: hotpoint wma66 no drum action
I would be checking the wiring harness with a microscope, give all of the motor plug connections a gentle tug, often break off there. Complete motor harness is available and is not expensive.
Re: hotpoint wma66 no drum action
thanks will have a look tomorrow,ive tested with the multi from chopper to motor tests ok
Re: hotpoint wma66 no drum action
Had same fault today turned out to be control mod but as jim said check motor plug wiring
Re: hotpoint wma66 no drum action
It’s on the only module in the WMA range, ie the board behind the fascia. You sometimes see a burnt out connection to the board, they usually solder up ok.

?????????????
Module or PCB different names for the same thing.
There are loads of different modules/pcb’s for the WMA range, this machine has three all on its own.
Would you care to elucidate?

Re: hotpoint wma66 no drum action
going back to previous post there was no sign of damage on control mod its just good that i happend to have both boards on the van to try
Re: hotpoint wma66 no drum action
The relays are on your control module/pcb behind the facia or if the machine has multiple boards it is usually the board at the left hand lower rear of the machine that has the relays on it.
There are normally five relays on the board if IRC .. I now just replace all of them at once… Cost about £0.52 each from RS Componants. I think two of the relays switch the motor and one does the heater. Not sure what the others are for as yet.

Poor English on my part, I meant there’s (usually) just the one board on WMA machines, ie the one behind the fascia. Or is the WMA66 a flashy machine with a display board etc as well?

Yes, all the WMA6* machines are Ultima models with the digital display, the WMA7’s are the same as well. 😉
