Re: CDA CW494 Dishwasher – Shorting / Tripping the Fuse
In the absence of any other reply I’ll post my findings and hope that they are useful in the future to others.
With the dishwasher in situ I removed the kitchen door front and dishwasher metal front together by undoing the screws on the inside of the door which released the door front.
With the inside workings exposed it was possible to examine the wiring loom that came from inside the main body of the dishwasher through into the door. There were about 8 – 10 wires one of which was cut in half and had been causing the shorting. The plastic sheathing that had been put over the wires to prevent this seemed to have been completely chopped in half at some point, and left the wiring loom to rub between the door front and the main body.
I repaired the wire, replaced the front and created a new plastic protection for the wires using the side of a milk carton.
All works now and i didn’t end up shelling out any money, I hope this helps someone in the future.
