Re: SMS4472GB/20 no water in

Hi, thanks for suggestions. No problem with the tap/hose on water inlet. As a last resort I will try repairing the delay timer board. If that does not cure the problem then I’ll have to decide between an engineer or a new machine. (wife getting a bit tetchy).
Many thanks to all concerned for your help.

Regards

Re: SMS4472GB/20 no water in

Hi Martin, I agree it would be worth it to keep the d/w in service for a few more years but money is a bit tight right now and Maplins tell me that the resistor thats gone will cost 11p or so.

The problem is the coloured markings are not clear and they can’t identify the value of the resistor.Can you tell me the value of R17 please ???

Hi Martin, I looked at the site you suggested, had a bit of a shock when I saw the price. Before I go down that road is it a possible DIY job. There is a Maplins near by.??????

Re: SMS4472GB/20 no water in

Hi, I have checked both- the black i” pipe is clear and the level meter moves freely to operate the microswitch. I did notice that the bottom section of the tank is rust coloured in places??????? when re assembled I tilted the machine to an angle of 45 degees and the float moved smoothly.

Switched on same humming noise for a minute or so then nothing.

After reading other comments I thought I should check the PCB in the door and low and behold there are some brown marks round two of the “gizmo’s”. They are C12 & R17. Are these a DIY replacement job????
