    Thanks,

    You have checked there’s a neutral supply too? 😆

    Salt sensor ? 0.2Ohm,and rinse aid ? open circuit. The rinse aid? I pressume is a switch but the salt sensor?
    what type of components are these?

    What price a new board?

    Thanks

    Both the salt sensor and rinse-aid sensors are reed switches operated by floating magnets…the readings you’ve got are correct if it has rinse-aid but no salt 😉

    The water damage is probably the root cause and the pcb’s are not known to be bombproof.

    An email to spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk should get you the price and availability…done forget to include all the model details.

    Re: Diplomat 8252 problem

    If the matrix on the RHS and the transfer tube are spotless then have a look at the pressure switch. If that’s ok too then it’s probably the pcb i’m afraid, and if it tripped the power out there may be an earth fault which has damaged the pcb 😕

    Time to get your meter out…plug out of course. :zap:

    If that’s beyond you then you might like to try the link below to find an approved engineer?

    Fine if you want a humid conservatory will associated curry smells and the like 😆

    Incidentally, Matsui (Curry’s own brand created name) may claim to have a greater extraction but that would be under their own ideal test conditions 😉

    Re: Whirlpool AWM 325 not spinning or draining

    The pump is switched by the pcb when it’s required i.e. when the machine needs to drain. It may be that the pump is indeed a gonner but it seems a big coincidence that it stopped draining when the bus pass got in 😉

    Knowing whether a pump is worn is very much an experienced ear listening to it so unless you have some experience then it may be time to call an engineer? (link below)

    Alternatively, a pump is not a hugely expensive item so you might like to try it and see?

    HTH?

    Yes…check through the rest of the hoses 😉

    My money would be it’s in the sump hose (runs from tub to pump) 😉

    Re: Cooker Hood installation

    I should add that if it’s impossible to run the duct in the ceiling void then you could surface mount it and box it in just below the ceiling but somehow they never look right 😕

    Re: Cooker Hood installation

    The only way is to run the ducting into the ceiling void under the upstairs floor…unfortunately if your joists run at 90o to the wall with the hood on then it’s impossible to run to the nearest outside wall (6in holes in 8in joists is not too clever 8O)

    If the hose then has to run much more than a couple of metres to follow the joist line you start to get into condensation problems within the ducting…this might be overcome with condensation traps plumbed to a waste pipe but most people don’t even go there! 😕

    My fingers are crossed for your joists running parallel to the wall 😆

    Re: Whirlpool AWM 325 not spinning or draining

    Hi Mike

    If it won’t drain it won’t spin anyway. An experienced ear will tell if the pump is actually running and if it isn’t then it’s either blocked or knackered. Draining problems are nearly always a blockage somewhere. IIRC your machine has a filter behind the kick panel at the front so that’s your first port of call. Failing that it’s time to start disconnecting hoses to find the blockage.

    If it needs a pump then have a look in http://shop.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/ to find one.

    Re: Bosch WFB2004 Door seal

    You can easily check if it’s the door seal or not…run the machine to produce the leak, unplug the power, then unhook the front lip only of the door seal (spring clamp) and turn the seal in on itself to see the outside of it, any leak will be easy to spot 😉
