    Re: What Machine do you use at home?

    Ah, Just so happens I have a couple of Blomberg motors lying around the house. (Not for much longer if the wife gets her way). I know one has a broken tacho magnet but I believe the other is fine.

    Depending on the number of program leds you either have a “water valve closed” (3 led version) or an ntc fault (4 led version).
    Hope this helps

    Re: What Machine do you use at home?

    Ken, If I’d noticed earlier I’d have kept you happy. We’ve got a Servis washing machine that still has “Scrap” written on the side, Bosch dishwasher, Hotpoint tumble drier that I took down from Scotland with me, New world ceramic top range cooker (bout 12 years old, again from work), some no name combination microwave convection oven and a Whirlpool side by side fridge freezer. (another scrap unit from work).

    Whirlpool dishwashers open onto the top basket too. The tablets are washed out / disolved by the spray from the arms. The tablets fall out at the end only if the spray arms aren’t spraying the water. As far as I remember Indesit are the same

    Re: whirlpool ARZ726/b HELP

    Ok, had a quick look at the circuit for this and I think it’s unlikely to be a circuit board. Some of these machines have been fitted with an optional dispenser lock. You’ll need to check your manual (don’t have mine handy I’m afraid) to see whether yours has this and if it’s been locked.
    Other than the above it’s multimeter time and fault tracing.

    Re: whirlpool ARZ726/B Fridgefreezer

    Hiya, Your unit has a dual water valve assembly, it comes as a complete unit. However, you need to ascertain that the valve is at fault. It could be that the main module is faulty or it could be as simple as the feed pipe in the freezer door has frozen. If you remove the plinth at the bottom of the doors you’ll be able to disconnect the pipe going up through the freezer door. Activate the water dispenser and if you get water at the bottom, it’s a frozen pipe.

    I think there’s an exhaust thermostat on this model. Would have to get the diagram to be sure but one of the other lads will probably know.

    Re: Whirlpool ADG 994 dishwaher – stuck on drain

    Sounds like the anti flood device has been activated in the base of the machine. Try tipping the machine forward slightly and see if water drains out the corners.
    Count the number of flashes from the start button, it will flash a number of times, pause, then repeat (over and over again). Let us know and this will give us a pointer to the problem.

    PLEASE PULL THE PLUG FIRST

    Not sure about the model but didn’t LG’s have a pull release down by the filter?

    OK, that’s a single flash which indicates a problem with the NTC.
    Remember to unplug it before doing anything to it.

    Re: Prima LPR600 Dishwasher not starting just beeping

    Hiya, There is always some water left in the filter area, this is not what is referred to as “flooded base”. You need to count the number of flashes between pauses, this will give us an indication of the possible problem.

    Re: Whirlpool Double Oven – Knobs Melt!

    “Due to residual heat after grilling in the upper cavity, it is possible that the knobs / rings are damaged from the high temperature within the cavity. This is because the upper cooling fan stops after any cooking or grilling function.”
    The service fix that has been applied is to keep the cooling fan above the upper cavity running after grilling, instead of stopping when switched off, to keep the controls cooler.
    Worthwhile asking Whirlpool why you’re still having the problem

    Re: White Knight Tumble Dryer CL477

    I’ve found 12 variations of CL447 but no CL477. Are there letters after the model name? or even better a 12 digit number?

    Re: Indesit WD 12S not drying

    I really wish I could remember all the models, but I can’t so….. on some models there is a cable with a thermal fuse in it.
    If the dryer fan and the pump is working, check to see if there’s a thermal fuse cable. If there is check it for continuity and if it’s blown then you’ve either got a blockage in the system (not enough air flow) or the cool down period isn’t being used.
    No point just changing the cable as it will go again, you need to find the cause.
    If none of the above makes any sense then it’s probably “engineer time”.
    Remember though, before doing anything, UNPLUG THE APPLIANCE FIRST.
