ModeratorE32 is only the moisture detectors in the drum and does not equate to the E60 fault you had
the very fact its heating makes me think the compresor is running
a lot od faults on these is down to air flow in the unit
rechack all filters and the evaporator face. Hold the door filter up to the light as these need washing occasionally

Moderatorbe interesting to see if it last as it states temp range 30 – 100 degrees
Dave

Moderatorvery likely but I cant see stock of this anywhere but you can get shocks and plates on part no C00309597
which look ok
you can check here

Moderatorreally satisfying when you crack an akward one

Moderatorcommon fault on these older timers is the capacitor on the board providing the power to the electronics
if it goes machine wont move on or reach full spin speedDave

Moderatorhas it got a child lock ?

Moderatoryes had lot of them including getting called out to machine only to arrive to find it in use by another member of staff who knows nothing about a fault on the appliance

Moderatora lot of fridge sensors are foamed in during manufacture
some can be changed but it involves cutting a hole in the insulation at the rear and refoaming it
you can only do this if the manufaturer gives you position info for the sensor
as for boards, its a Hotpoint so beware of the fact that a lot of hotpoint board need programming after installation as these is no software on most of them

Moderatorok worth knowing
Dave

Moderatoror the heater relays are sticking causing the heater to overheat
time to scrap it as you would have to replace the board and the pump
module is £222 from Bosch

Moderatorthe orange resistor act as a current limiter on switch on and a fuse if something fails
100 ohm means its fine
red diode should have different readings if you reverse your leads. most meters have a diode test setting
look for similar diodes and measure them as well. cant see that end of the board properly so can give more info
if all ok you can try some live tests if you want to
look at the 3 capacitors and look at the voltage ratings. one will have 400v which should read 300v or so when energised
the other 2 will prob be low voltage poss 12 v or 5 V
all the voltages have to be there for the board to function

Moderatorok
ORANGE check this resistor its normally about 47 ohms or so but well under 100
RED there are a numner of Shotky diodes on the output. had a few go short circuit and cause power supplies to fail. very common fault in Beko washer dryer. if you think its short unsolder one leg to be certain as can somtimes give false readings in circuit
YELLOW look very carefully at this chip. is there a blemish on the packaging that looks like it may have failed. it can often be very small round full stop size shiny bit
Daveelectrofix
Moderatoris it just coincidence the spin only was ok or is that ok all the time
Dave
electrofix
Moderatorif its closed it will be zero ohms
the lowest you would get in circuit would be an element which would be 20 ohms or soif in doubt disconnect one wire off each element
Dave
electrofix
Moderatorbut something must have made it stop working and components can fail at any time
what i am hoping is i can identify power supply components so you can test them
