Re: BOSCH SHV4313 Dishwasher
greetings. new here, though not exactly new to fixing stuff- mostly I am a broadcast engineer & musician but I have had a few white goods in bits over the years too.
this bosch 4313 at my girlfriend’s place worked fine the other day, then the g/f loaded it again & it wouldn’t power up. I checked the fuse- open circuit. I replaced the fuse.
my rule regarding fuses is to keep replacing them until the appliance, whatever it is, gives forth a clue as to what is ailing it.
this appliance let forth one of the loudest bangs I have ever heard. no smoke, but just the faintest whiff of something that conducted for a few mains-cycles & then stopped conducting very abruptly.
oh, & the main start/stop switch was in it’s “off” position at this point. I realise that this deosn’t necessarily mean the machine was really off.when I have a little more time, I will dismantle the b*gger & see if there are any visual clues as to how expensive this may prove. in the meantime, anyone care to share previous experiences of this nature? am I likely to be into a new element, controller pcb or pump? or could I have just fried a stray rodent? 🙂
duncan.
