Hi all, I know I only posted this yesterday and I guess everyone’s probably busy so understand why no one has replied as yet. Through my own due diligence I was able to answer my own question. I hope this helps others with similar issues. I bypassed the Aquastop in the end. I’m now washing my pants, thank god and ordered a new Aquastop.

Re: washing machine model v4380
Sorry but I must of missed something. I have been looking at this page every day since my machine went on the blink and I haven’t seen a single post. Am I looking in the wrong place? Where is the post? At the very least I can thank the helper for replying. I keep refreshing the page and nothing appears. Does the reply time out.
Regards Darren

Re: washing machine model v4380
Well I was surprised that no body could help me here. Fortunately I was able to rely on my own experiance and get a few key answers from another site. For anybody who owns this model and has a similar fault. (Overheating of dryer). Check the following. Test the coils/valves at rear of machine across the two terminals, ease the plugs off first. They should read about 3.6kohm. Clean out the condesor chamber it could be blocked and resricting airflow to the heater element Therefore running too hot. Also check dryer motor is up to speed and blowing like a hurricane,If not element could overheat. I did this test with the door open and fooling the switch with a screwdriver. I did a complete overhaul of my machine and stripped it down to the barebones for piece of mind. Had to take the front of this baby off to get to the condensor chamber which involved pulling the drum rubber off. Once it had got this involved I went crazy and inspected everything. Everything is working fine and after extensive testing the gremlin is a faulty thermistor which I am fitting in the next few days. Hope this eventually helps someone.
Regards Darren
