My service m6115 tripped the 32A mcb in my consumer unit about 5 mins into a wash cycle. After resetting the MCB, the machine failed to continue the cycle. The lights on the front of the machine are on but nothing is happening. I turned off the power and removed the top and back. There is no obvious burnt out wiring on the motor circuit and I can’t see and blown components on the control circuit PCB. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you’re certain that the pcb looks ok, the door lock may well be the culprit. 5 minutes in and the heater comes on – the load may be too much for the door lock to take. It’s switched by the timer/selector unit, not the pcb, which may be why it hs survived.
Power off if you intend to investigate this for yourself.
