Blenky, indeed your machine requires expert attention to resolve the error, as farmboy suggests, try the link below 🙂

I did attempt to use the repairs@ service on Wednesday last week (24/5). It recomended someone called Fridgeman 999 and I filled in the contact form. However no-one has yet contacted me and I have been too busy to chase.

If not then I would also suspect the control PCB as it should detect other components that have failed.

Dave.

This model uses flashing lights for errors – but I don’t get any. It just acts strangely. For example at the end of the main wash it just does a few spin ups and then just stops with water still in – no flashing lights it just seems in a paused mode.

If I then skip through the whole cycle, turn it off then on and move it onto rinse it gets in a pickle as it tries to spin (?) with water still in the machine. Therefore I have to turn off the rinse cycle as soon as it drains. Then if I put it back to the rinse cycle after the drain it rinses OK but while rinsing it does a spin which is a bit odd. At the end of the rinse it pauses but if I leave it alone, after about 15 minutes or so it goes into the spin cycle.

After the spin cycle it does not finish but pauses with the ‘start/puse’ button flashing as if I had paused it! From here I just skip to then end and take the washing out as I have, by a slow process, got it to do a full cycle!

Do you think it’s worth replacing the PCB or just replace the machine?

Thanks

You should have a guarantee on the repair work carried out, so get them back.

Thanks for the response.

So you are saying that the problem of underfilling should have been looked into and not just replacing the heater?

Thanks again for the response.

Sorry I don’t understand some of the terminology here! 😕 What does ‘FOC’ mean?

Also where do I find a BSH engineer – just use the Yellow pages?

Thanks for the reply.

We had a two year warranty which ran out in December 2005- typical. As far as I’m aware that’s it.

I’m trying to find out how to locate a reliable engineer in the Brighton & Hove area. I expect it won’t be cheap but trying to avoid the cowboys out there.
