if anything goes wrong with the refrigeration circuit its a dead duck far too expensive to repair

if its air flow then you need to make sure the filters and evaporator is clear. The evaporator is the fridge part that gets cold to condense the steam. its the first part behind the filter at the bottom

sounds like fan failure

cooling fan not working so oven overheats

most likely part no 3872079029

Dave

remove outer door

remove lower cover

then pump is there on left attatched to the sump

you can also get at it from underneath by removing the base

once you find it ( follow the outlet hoses) the pump twists off but it has a latch which you will have to find and depress

there may som videos about on how

Dave

[electrofix]

yes drain pump jammed

you can access from the lower from the lower front cover

the pump twists off but the is a latch that you would have to find and unlock to turn it

Dave

[electrofix]

there are 2 pumps
look up

SAMDC9715696G

recirc pump wont cause any fault codes

Samsung boards are also prone to failure and because they pot the boards with a gel any component gatting hot cannot get rid of the heat

Dave

[electrofix]

could be something trapped in the pump

got lots of glass. broken crockery etc out of dishwasher pumps over the years

may well be item 10006705

resistor heats up and activates thermostat which turns on fan

when oven off it cools down slowly allowing fan to run on

to prove its the problem you need to run with the lid off and disconnect one wire from the stat when it sticks on

Dave

[electrofix]

when fit the switch, take photo’s before and do it one wire at a time

wont do any harm to take the top off and look at the switch and look for burning wires. if they are discoloured its better to change it before it destroys the wire connections
if it has you will have to cut the wores back to clean copper and fit new connectors

Dave

[electrofix]

well you could try
turn it off at the wall for 5 min, then when you turn on again you will normally have to reset the time

if it was the clock oven should work normally now

Dave

yes remember the early philips small dryer, the fan was screwed onto the motor shaft and had to be removed to fit the belt

like all designs those days engineered to last

philips had depots and used ot go to them to get spares. the one in liverpool was in Speke

Dave

look up part no 41003026 on google

this is the switch behind the right hand knob

open oven and look for burnt contacts

its only going to be the clock or this switch and since you said you turned the knob and it came on my money is on faulty switch

probably Vestel who took over

all of the other appliances sold were vestel anyway as far as I know. The only thing they made was the dryer.

And that did not change much for 40 years. still have a whirlpool service book somewhere with the same components as it was whirlpool that made the original design.

sounds like a selector problem

have you got the serial no ?

Dave

[electrofix]

should have an old servis parts book with part numbers etc
most wholsalers site have deleted the data now so its get harder to find out which is which etc

Dave

[electrofix]

the notch helps to keep the clothes in the drum as it goes into spin

its a very long shot but will look at the old rubbers in work next week

no other seal will fit as all seals are different
