Hi, any clues as to what this might be please? Stopped part way through cycle and won’t re-start. the lights pulse 9 flashes, pause then 9 flashes again etc. etc. alarm beeps when door is closed.

The pcb is unable to turn off the water valve. If this were the case you’d be paddling, so it’s almost certainly a PCB fault.

Thanks, any ideas on where to get new pcb?

Any special tools or techniques for replacing pcb or should it be a reasonably straightforward like for like swap with a bunch of plug in connectors?

I guess it is located in the door somewhere? I have taken door panel off before when replacing dispenser unit so I do know to turn it off/unplug and watch out for the nasty sharp edges and what happens to spring loaded doors when you take the weight off.
