    ….it won’t drink….!!

    (Oh why do I bother looking at this crap I ask myself :rolls:)

    Hotpoint WMF760G won’t fill, just comes up with H2O. It won’t drain either, just counts down. Won’t spin only too, just counts down…??????

    Got to be the module surely? (that’s what I reckon anyway). It’s one of those 3 phase jobbies, needs smartcard, hardware key (best part of £200 I know)…bl**dy nora!

    Am I on the right track though? Time to wheel it outside for the council to take it away is it?

    Dunno Mike…? Is the fault I described symptomatic of a duff module though ? Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of guessing it wrong and all that stuff… 🙁

    Maybe our friend from Lancashire (or Yorkshire? Somewhere north of Bristol anyway.) will have some clue.
    In the meantime you could have a peep at the board for signs of blown up triacs or domed electrolytics and even maybe see if there’s a large rectangular polypropylene cap on there supplying power to the fascia? board. Or deliver customer into the clutches of Hotpoint OOG service with appropriate cautions. I presume that’s a fairly new model so she shouldn’t have to shell out more than a ton or so?
    Whilst it would be nice to sort it yourself, you’re surely not that desperate for work? 😆
    Why not give Tony a ring anyway? I think this could be the beast?

    Martin,if the EMW board doesnt cure the fault then they will take it back for a small charge.
