Re: Candy Dishwasher tripping the RCCB Switch
Well, spent quite a while on the internet this morning trying to find a service manual for the candy dishwasher, I did find one but it was rather bad so gave up on that.
Pulled the dishwasher out and there was signs of water from underneath so tipped it backwards 45 degrees and water a plenty came out. I presume the anti flood float switch operated correctly and the water in the bottom was obviously causing the short and tripping the switch. I removed the side panels and the back bottom panel etc and mopped up all the water from underneath, the dishwasher was disconnected at this point :death: I then had a good look underneath and it looked to me like the heater flow through pipe had come completely away so I guess this was the problem. Anyway, reconnected it and got a hairdryer on the bottom area to dry things out.
After some time drying the components out I was able to turn on the machine and select a program without the mains tripping so that was nice 🙂
Loaded the bad boy up and selected an eco wash cycle with the sides still away from the washer as I wanted to check for any leaks … seems fine so far about half way through the cycle … hopefully it will get through without any incident.
