Re: EQUATOR EZ3612CEE malfunctioning – wash timer is rotatin
Thanks for your response Penguin45.
The wires to the thermistor are attached. They were temporary detached when I was measuring the sensor.
And the machine does have hot and cold water fill. And hot water fills in. But in front of the machine there is a knob for wash temperature control. I was thinking that this can control the washing temperature. But obviously, if there isn’t a water heater the machine will work only with water from the supply pipe (whatever temperature is there). I think that means I can control only how lower then supply pipe water temperature can be. But not that I can increase the water temperature above hot water from supply line.
Well, I guess I should live with it.Re: EQUATOR EZ3612CEE malfunctioning – wash timer is rotatin
Sorry.
Something didn’t work.
Try this one:

I had my washer totaly open and still couldn’t get how this machine heat the water. That’s why I uploaded some pictures which can be helpfull for somebody how can recognize some parts.
This is the link to the pictures.

Those pictures shows teh machine from bottom, back and top. I have more pictures if something is not clear I can upload more.Re: EQUATOR EZ3612CEE malfunctioning – wash timer is rotatin
Do you know where the water heater is located and how to test it. Because I opened my unit and on lower back side of the drum there is something, but I think this is a sensor. The wires connected to it are so thin that it can not be a heater.

Thanks Penguin,
I was able to fix the motor. It is a long story, but it was a lose connection.
And I think that your advise was a big part of fixing this problem.
But now the water does not get heated. In dryer regime the air heater is working, but in washer regime the water gets in and stays with same temerature all the time.
Do you have any idea if the air heater is used to heat the water (through the air) in those type of units.Re: EQUATOR EZ3612CEE malfunctioning – wash timer is rotatin
I will check motor brushes and the connections between motor and pcb. But, do you know, by chance, if there si any way to check pcb (which I am assuming is the control board). I mean – is there any control points on the board wher man can mesure voltage and check if this part is working properly. I coudn’t find an electrical diagram so far.
And do you think, since Equator appearantly is Indesit-built, the parts (control board) are exchangeable each other. It is very hard to find any Equator part. There is a rumor they are out of buissness already.Thank you for your time!

I realy appreciate your respond Penguin.
When the dial starts clunking round, the start lamp flashes 2 times and after that 10 sec. is of. And that repeats every 10 seconds on and on (even when the pimp is off already) until I switch off the machine.
