Any ieas what I have done wrong???? May 21, 2009 at 6:45 pm #287534 Penguin45Participant Re: Whirlpool AWO 3551 HELP!!!! If the machine got started (filled, started to tumble?), the next step is heat, so the problem may well lie with the heating element. Power off if you intend to sort this out yourself. Penguin45.

Thankyou.. would that cause the machine to keep blowing the fuse as everytime I try to plug it in it just trips again.
