Re: Smeg DWI 710E

Yippeee…just had a poke around some of the wiring, and look what appeared….

Guess it was this that was being troublesome..

Thanks for your help

Er, no, not exactly…..

That’s the mains suppressor (a capacitance device 😀 ), which has undoubtedly blown and is responsible for the spurious flashing lights. The SMEG orginal component has been supeceded to one which requires major work to fit, so most of us are just using this:

With the addition of AMP tags to suit, it’s the same unit.

The start/run capacitor is the cylinder attached to the side of the pump motor.

Thanks Greg… 🙂

Penguin – well took the capacitor off the motor and it looks a bit knackered eh?

Cheers,

Re: Smeg DWI 710E

Nice one. We can conclude that the component has failed……….

Good luck with it, let us know when you get it going.
