Re: Gegsy Strikes Again!
That doesn’t sound minor K. If you are in touch please pass on my best wishes?
Re: rubber heater seal come away from drum BOSCH
The rubber seal is a compression fit using the centre nut….this needs to be loosened to allow the rubber to return to shape so that it can be reinserted.
I would be more worried by the fact that it came out in the first place…I have seen this on machines on occasion and nearly always it’s as a result of a foreign object between drum and tub which has collided with the heater or worse still by drum bearing collapse (obvious) 😉
Don’t forget power off before doing anything if you’re having a go yourself :zap:
Re: Can anyone help? Smeg DW1612C dishwasher broken.
tinalem1 wrote:Hello,
I’m not sure if a pcb timer is the same thing as a pcb.Tina
Yes it is….in the days of yore, the control mechanism was basically an electric timer. These days electronics (Printed Circuit Boards) do the job instead but the name ‘timer’ has been in use for so long it’s still used quite often.
As to whether the machine is worth repairing, well that can be a subjective thing but even just financially you have to weigh up things like the cost of the repair, age of the machine, how much wear and tear it already has, the quality of the product and therefore it’s likely agespan, the ease of service etc, the cost of a replacement machine with the equivalent/cheaper/more expensive etc.
As you have found out, Smeg are not the cheapest to repair but against that they are not cheaply made compared to most IMO. They do suffer the odd breakdown now and again but then what machines don’t?
HTH?
Re: rubber heater seal come away from drum BOSCH
Post up the model number and E number?
Do you mean the rubber boss that holds in the heater element?

How else would you diagnose a seized compressor?Feel the compressor to see if it’s warm/hot. If you are satisfied that the relay/overload is working correctly but the compressor is hot then you have problems.
🙁Re: Whirlpool ADG7560
The fact that it worked on one occasion after the strip down bodes well…it almost certainly is a poor connection to the flow meter which is a well known problem with these. You need to recheck the connection to it, make sure there is no oxidation on the tiny pcb on the flow meter (if there is it can be removed with a pencil eraser or gently with very fine emery), then make sure the harness contacts are squeezed tight and pushed fully on.
If still no luck then a new flow meter it will be (the whole side chamber required)
Don’t forget, unplug before doing anything :zap:
Re: Neff 1031-IM
If it’s an old one it’ll be a GB1031 in which case this one should do :-

An email to Shop@ with the dimensions should confirm 😉

Re: NEED HELP QUICK
No….it won’t come with instructions
Yes….it is easy to replace, the motor needs to be separated from the gearbox (2 screws) to gain access to the coupling.
Don’t forget to unplug if having a go yourself :zap: or click the link below for professional help.
