Re: Whirlpool 3RLSQ8533 Top Loader
your descriptions are a bit vague but
the first one
if on spin the clutch on top of box is going round but machine does not spin then yes most likely clutch
second machine if motor always starts but no movement then will normally be drive coupling
gearboxes dont fail very often mechanically but have had the odd one

Re: whirlpool tumble dryer 3xler5435hq0
would look at exhaust stats first sound likely you could bridge them for a quick test while you are there
sound like element is either not working at full power or tripping out check for air flow problems check drum seals for integrity in case air is leaking in
hope this helps

Re: Lux EWD1409 E36
comes up on qualtex retail around £110 cant be more accurate qualtex systems down
i would ring lux direct go ito trade parts when they ask you for account just press hash will give u trade at 25{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} plus no p&p over £50 i think lot faster than special ordering through anyone

Re: Whirlpool 3RLSQ8533 Top Loader
not unusual for spin clutches to be contaminated with gearbox oil
may need to change box as well
easy fit remove paddle then gearbox is only held on by 3 bolts comes out with clutch attached

Re: Indesit WIDL126S flashing lights 1+2+4+Door Lock
dryer motor has to be running when element is on otherwise it will overheat

Re: Electrolux EWD 1409
possible door lock machine wont do anything with door unlocked
this machine has a diagnostic mode you need to get a local engineer to access it and see if there are any clues
i take it no other light flash on the front of the machineDave
Re: Stoves cooker indicator disks
if this is the same as the ones i have in a local care home they are rubbish you have to change them and they are about £4 or 5 each
there is a ‘D’ shaped hole in the middle that wears and you will never successfully glue it and if you do you may make more probs for the future
have noticed some of the later ones they have reduced the diameter to reduce leverage but i await the next failure

Re: meggers
you have to remember that in use all machine are subject to 230v rms
rms means route mean square that is the equivalent dc voltage but the mains is a sinusoidal wave which means the max voltage is 1.4 times this which is 325 volts (and most voltages are higher than this)
at higher voltages you will get more leakage to earth from heaters etc so a 9v meter will not show it
since these leakage curents can upet electronics or trip rcd’s a megger can be a useful test

Re: bosch t dryer WTE6920 GB/01 DEAD SILENCE!!!! HELP
sound like a weird fault
was it the same with the original boards
take it you have checked heater etc for continuity in case board does checks before it starts
Dave
Re: bosch t dryer WTE6920 GB/01 DEAD SILENCE!!!! HELP
if it is a relay you can check yourself but you have to operate the pcb with accees to relay coil terms if you get a voltage at coil and relay does not close you have found it
have just done this on a bosch dryer that is not heating relay had 9v on coil but not operating have just got new relay will fit tomorrow and find out only stand to lose £4 if i am wrong not a bad gambleDave
