Re: Bosch SMS 5012 dishwasher controller timer motor

Thanks for your excellent advice.
Got timer drive motor from http://www.bshappliancecare.co.uk/ arrived overnight. (Old part had stripped its gearing)

However ( you knew I was going to say that) controller seems fine, but no water enters machine. If I provide a bucket of water at the appropriate time, rinse cycle works fine (ie rises pumps out finishes etc).

There is mains voltage getting to the water valve, but its resistance is infinite…

So – my question is – can a failing timer drive motor cause the valve to burn out? The machine ran for about 3 hours when the failure occurred.

Thanks again for your help – the machine has been with us from new – I would like to get it working again.

Ps sorry if this is now in the wrong forum

Hi Martin

I have stripped the controller down. The motor is powering up ok, but but instead of spinning cleanly, stops starts and vibrates. I can only assume it is knackered….
