Re: Hoover HNWL7146 not heating during wash / drying cycles
Ah, I see where you are coming from!
I didn’t ignore the advice, the machine was part way through a cycle when he requested I test it on a high temp cycle. It wasn’t an intentional snub!
I have booked an Engineer to visit next week. If it’s of any use to you chaps, I will return here once the problem has been properly looked at and let you know the outcome.
Thanks again to you both for your help.
Re: Hoover HNWL7146 not heating during wash / drying cycles
Hi Jackal.
I’m not sure that I’ve ignored any advice. I don’t intend to cause offence to anyone, merely seeking some experienced insight.
I do believe I have given information when asked and been as clear as my layman knowledge of such things allows.
Re: Hoover HNWL7146 not heating during wash / drying cycles
Okay.
Seems to me like a horrible coincidence, since you know of no fault that could cause the two to fail simultaneously.
Are there any definite indicators that it could be the PCB, such as programs refusing to run etc? The wash cycles I use all run fine.
Thanks for your help!
Re: Hoover HNWL7146 not heating during wash / drying cycles
IT IS COLD.
I appreciate the input, but I’m not trying to diagnose the problem.
Let’s just assume that it is neither heating the water nor heating up during drying. What is the likely fault? What is the likely cost? Is it worth repairing?
Re: Hoover HNWL7146 not heating during wash / drying cycles
It is mid cycle now and the water is cold.
Re: Hoover HNWL7146 not heating during wash / drying cycles
Pretty sure. I caught it earlier just after having finished a 30min quick cycle and the clothes were stone cold. Normally there is some residual heat left.
I suppose it’s possible that the cycle included a rinse, but unlikely given that it was the shortest cycle. I will double check.
Is whether the wash is not heating or not particularly significant?
