Re: AEG Dishwasher Fault

Hi all,

Well it’s thrown up the same fault, constantly pumping and filling at same time, maybe pauses for 15s then does it again continually.

I dismantled properly this time and found no water and the anti-flood device to be fully functioning. Turned it on with the polystyrene float off and it did the same, checked the switch a multi meter and it works…

So, its a strange fault. Is it likely to be a control board issue?

Re: AEG Dishwasher Fault

Fair enough, I’ll leave it well alone! What is it? Just your typical dishwasher waste?

Do you think the anti-flood device was responsible for filling/draining at same time and can tipping it help? Or do you suspect other problem?

Re: Rangemaster SXS Fridge-Freezer, challenging fault!!?

I’ve had a think with regards to the suggestions and perhaps the following info might help:

Freezer temp doesn’t seem to be deteriorating, if the defrost heater had failed wouldn’t the freezer be getting worse and worse or does it just reach a plateau??

I have noticed the back of the fridge ices up, I didn’t notice our old frost free fridge doing this?

I think the only way to prove it is to defrost it and see if works for a period?

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Bryan,

Many thanks for responding and pointing me in a direction where I’m beginning to make some sense of the problem. What sort of cost would you estimate for both of those repair jobs?

Are parts easy to come by for these units?

Thanks,
Chris

Photos below. Serial is 7911000844, made in China… I’m not sure where the main PCB is, does it vary on these models?

Final picture shows temperature difference.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the reply.

I can’t hear a fan running but not sure how loud it should be or where I should be listening – can you advise? If I move slide the unit out should I be able to see it anywhere?

I haven’t yet trying defrosting it either, its full of food. I will try though, it is a good suggestion.
