Re: Ignis AWP046 timer problem

Thank you odom for your help. Luckily I have managed to solve the problem without resorting to having to call out an engineer or having to buy a new timer.

For the record this is what I did:

First of all I blew into the pipe leading to the pressostat and I could clearly hear it click. I then took the pressostat apart to check the switch and found it to be clean and in working order.

Second I disconnected the timer, removed it from the machine and took it apart. I gave it a thorough check for burnt tracks and connections but again it was fine. Reassembled the machine and hey presto it works properly.

I can only think that either the pressostat had stuck and I accidently freed it up or the timer has been reset due to being fully disconnected. I had originally turned the power off to the machine to try and reset it but that had not worked.

Re: Ignis AWP046 timer problem

Thank you for replying. This machine doesn’t have any lights at all.

Additional info: I have been researching this problem tonight online and am now thinking I should check the pressostat but am unsure how to proceed.

I’m hoping that it is not the timer as I cannot find the part number and Ignis/Whirlpool are selling them at more than the cost of a new machine 🙁
