Hi all, just picked up a Zanussi DW930 second hand from the local booty in good nick. Plumbed it all in and its not having any of it, sounds as if its trying to pump, then ticks, then tries to pump again the throws up a A7 fault 😯
Didn’t cost me alot of money and would like to “try” and get it up and running…..
Any idea’s gents?
Re: Zanussi DW930 A7 fault?
Jesus C, I friggin hope its not a pump – cheapest is £212.99 😯
Think Id better get the sodding thing insured after this repair!
Re: Zanussi DW930 A7 fault?
It is a circulation motor error. It may be jammed, blown or not getting a feed ( broken wires in door. Also possible that the start/run capacitor has failed.
1521811081 is the pump, around £140 if that’s what you need. spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk will get you one promptly.

Penguin45 your a gent, is an A3 fault code tied in with the A7? Its thorwing up this one now? 😯
Cheers
Re: Zanussi DW930 A7 fault?
A3 is no heat detected in the time allowed – if the water doesn’t circulate, there is very limited heating, so they tie up together.

Cheers Penguin!
How the hell do you know this stuff, are you a repairer?
Just one last question, are these Zanussi Electrolux’s much cope compared to other brands?

The site is owned, run and managed by professional repairers.
The state of this particular industry is a shambles. UKW exists primarily to promote the lot of the Independent Repairers – along the way, we are prepared to help the public, debunk myths, name and shame where appropriate and generally make a stand against the appalling decline in quality of the products we are forced to service. The whole industry is basically a disgrace.
Your machine is an elderly one by modern standards, but was quite decent. Personally, I wouldn’t recommend shelling out that much money on a motor, as other parts, specifically trim, are starting to become obsolete. If it’s jammed, needs a capacitor or the wiring hads failed, fair enough, fix it. The major outlay for a new motor is rather marginal due to the low residual value of an older machine – think old car. You like it it, you spend on it but what’s it actually worth?
Says the man who has spent 9 months and far too much time and money restoring a 42 year old Wolseley………. 😀
