    But, ask yourself why they/we are skint 😉

    We as an industry are massively undervalued, we don’t charge/get paid enough – period.

    We may well slag Corgi off but they have made many central heating installers wealthy by overseeing legislation, the fact that they have on the whole ignored the whitegoods industry is something of a mystery given the vast quantities of gas cooking appliances in the market place.

    So, self regulation is better than an overseeing (government appointed) body surely, at least that way we can raise the stakes from within and pave our own destiny as it were 😀

    Moved to the trade area Bruce 😉

    Blockage in the pressure system maybe ?

    Yep plenty, but for legal and safety reasons we can’t give step by step instructions I’m afraid. Pretty straightforward compared to some, all done from the back/top with the power off of course :zap:

    The bearing kit for it is here:

    If you need pro help the repairs@ link below should provide someone for you 🙂

    Re: My AEG OKO lavamat 16800 turbo appears to be dead

    I doubt it’s the relay on the PCB to be honest, that is probably the heater one which will show signs of “arcing” after a few years.

    Smoke/smell is much worse normally, probably one of the pump/motors or a capacitor.

    Power off if checking further :zap: or better still I would ask an engineer to take a look, as you say it’s a nice piece of equipment and is worth repairing if possible 😀

    Check the flow meter in the left hand side labyrinth chamber HotDog, quite a common complaint 🙂

    Thanks for letting me know, it’s appreciated :tup:

    The “other” elements have been returned due to pony and trap manufacture 😉

    Nope, very much the same type of unit with a different PCB but roughly the same price 🙂

    _Dilz_ wrote:What do you need to test the PCB and where can it be found?

    If you need to ask that then it’s engineer time in all honesty, I’m afraid we can’t go into specifics for legal and safety reasons 😉

    Re: Smeg DEI710e1 Problem

    You could try resetting it (type “smeg and reset” in to the search without the quotes to find how) and see what happens.

    If that doesn’t cure it, it’s engineer time to be honest as other component failures can cause havoc with the software on these, the repairs@ link below should provide a contact 🙂

    You got the PNC there Johno ?

    I’ll see if I can dig out the diagnostics.

    _Dilz_ wrote:Has anyone got any ideas as to what the problem might be?

    It sounds like the PCB I’m afraid, either that or the compressor has failed but the former is more likely 🙁

    The PCB is roughly £50-£60 so I’d ask an engineer to check to be certain unless you have the means to test it (with the power off). The repairs@ link below should provide one 🙂

    The two top ones, that’s what they look like 😉

    For help on diagnosing and replacing please read all of this thread:
