    Hiya,
    It runs in one direction continuously without pause.
    Thanks for the ideas though.

    Re: Hotpoint TDL60 Tumble Drier

    Ahhhh. If only it were that easy. Looks like I’ll just have to dig around in the machine and try and figure it all out. 🙁
    Unless of course, someone else has come across this. 😀

    Thanks for the input anyway.

    Does it have a stretch belt? If so try a new belt.
    Can’t remember who told me about this or when, just remember being told when I had a similar problem.

    Check the carbon brushes in the motor. Most likely worn out.
    As always, if you intend trying repairs yourself, power off and unplug before doing anything.

    You have to be careful trying to get the fan off as it’s easy to bend the motor shaft. That’ll leave you with a very noisy machine when it’s rebuilt.
    These fans jam onto the shaft and are very difficult to remove. In the past I’ve used a hammer and screwdriver to crack the fan where the key on the shaft is. This enables it to be drawn off quite easily. If you’re very careful doing this the fan can be reused and the shaft doesn’t get bent.
    As always, if you are attempting any repair yourself, power off and unplug first.

    Re: Hotpoint TDL60 Tumble Drier

    Yep. I replaced the module and selector switch and it still won’t reverse.
    Can’t see anything else in the machine to do the switching.
    Machine doesn’t stop or pause so I can’t see the motor being the means of switching. It’s driving me nuts this one. 😕
    Thanks

    OK. Still stuck, that part number is for the module on the right hand side top of the machine. (Looking from the front). I’ve already changed that one and it still doesn’t reverse.
    Anyone got any other ideas on this? Please 😕

    Thanks

    Thanks for that, I didn’t see that 2nd module at all when I gave it look over. Really appreciate the help.

    Thanks

    How many flashes on the start button Simon? Is it timing out on drain? If so check the pressure switch for gunge.

    Re: hotpoint dwf element clamp tool?

    I was shown how to loosen these by using a small blade screwdriver inserted into the crimp and “waggling” it. You only need to open the crimp a fraction to be able to take the hose and clip off complete.
    Transfer the still closed clip to the new hose, refit to the tube heater and to close them up again I use a pair of minature end cutters.

    Ta for that Bryan.
    So, what your suggesting is that I replace the magnetron and inverter board.
    I’ve already replaced the faulty display board so might as well order up the other bits and see what happens 😮

    Thanks

    Re: Whirlpool side by side fridge freezer

    The support flap is either the “door” on the front of the ice maker or the part that the door clips onto. Looks like they still haven’t got around to listing the support shelf. Support shelf, as far as I remember has three holes in it and screws to the underside of the icemaker heatshield.
    Not to worry, I’ll have a look see if I’ve still got technicals phone number and try and get the info off Peter. Last time I spoke to him he had three of them in his office cupboard but no part numbers on them. 🙄
    Thanks for the diffuser part number Dave.

    Re: Whirlpool integrated D/W G2P DW1 WH problem

    It’s in the error codes section, page 2, along with the error codes.
    Basically, set the machine to the first (rinse) program, switch off, press and hold the start button and switch back on. There will be a beep and the start light will start flashing, release the start button, press start once and close the door. It should then run through the test program. If memory serves me right it takes about 15 minutes or thereabouts. If it refuses to go into the test mode you’ll need to try replacing the NTC.
    If there’s any errors it should stop and flash the code.
    If my memory is working the heater relay is on the module and it’s the two wires with the spade terminals that go to the heater. You can test the wiring, the toc and heater in one go. (TOC is built into the heater).You can also meter the NTC from the module end, again testing the wiring at the same time.
    Hope this helps, I’ve probably got some paperwork on Whirlpool dishwashers in the van but can’t remember offhand which models it covers.

    Re: Whirlpool integrated D/W G2P DW1 WH problem

    Hiya,
    I would have said that it was a software problem with the module but as it’s been replaced it’s a puzzler.
    The norm for the Dolphin range is, no error code is a faulty module.
    Never come across one with a faulty thermistor that would run through the whole program, but there’s always a first.
    Try running the diagnostics on it and see if it heats.
