Re: WT540 – flashing WASH ENHANCE and Flashing ON/OFF lights
Right …found a schematic …shows the wiring diagrams … have tested the PCB as per the wiring diagram and its all OK … Relay connections are closed/open as shown on diagram …. Also figured out which relay controls the HEATER as per the diagram. .. BUT it all tests OK. So ON/OFF is flashing as is the Wash enhance light …. Heater teated OK for continuity and for resistance … but guess what.. bought a second hand element and the machine is working a treat … so the`moral of the`story is… just because the simplest part tests fine, never assume its OK!!! simple £5 fix ..yipeeeeee
WT540 PCB – Location of Heater Relay ?
Hi, Can anyone point me to a schematic of the WT540 PCB board . I need to know which of the 4 relays is the ‘Heater Relay’ so that i can replace it …
THANKS
Re: WT540 – flashing WASH ENHANCE and Flashing ON/OFF lights
OK..heres the scenario so far ..
If i remove the heater element ( i.e disconnect the wires), I can get the machine to work but it will be a cold wash.
The element is showing 33 ohms and has continuity.
Does anyone know WHICH of the 4 relays on the PCB is the ‘heater relay’ … as I now have 2 identical boards from identical machines and its the same issue …. each PCB has 4 identical relays, so I was hoping to desolder one and replace the ‘heater relay’ one. (I’m assuming both PCBs are faulty)Or could it still be the Pressure switch and how can I test the dam thing …I read somewhere 2 connections should be closed when empty, and then when water enters drum …the other 2 should be closed ( vice versa) …

NOt even if the INDESIT machine has same specs/features and is essentially the same machine but badged INDESIT, rather than HOTPOINT ?
Both machines are 14oo sp00, variable spin control, variable temp control, same dials, same wash programmes, LOOK 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} same, same button/dial layout, etc, etc, etc but one is badges INdesit , other is Hotpoint ( made by same company)
