Hmm I found something…

This doesn’t look too good does it..?

Do you know if this can be cleaned? (Can I have this cleaned/restored by some company perhaps?)

Hi there, i understand, it’s just that it might have been a bit of a coincidence that with all connectors disconnected… error 5 would be the default error to display… anyway.. i connected everything except heater, but no difference. the sensor reads 15K even connected to the pcb (in other words: no wiring error)..

I could maybe clean the PCB? some citrus detergent, scrub, rinse and dry with compressed air or maybe buy a second hand board.
I found one online which is slightly different. (a relay is just shorted and a pot installed where mine has none)
I have v017 and the online one is v004. I would not know how to tell this would be programmed totally different and not suitable at all or if this is just a earlier type or something

See next post for pics for my pcb and this link for pcb up for sale

Hi Dave, thanks for your reply! I have an update…

Even with all the connectors disconnected (except mains power) the PCB still gives the exact same error

Start pause and program end start flashing

Before they start flashing, program ready flashes twice as soon as the power comes on. This also happened before.
After less then one second it goes into error mode 5: Start pause and program end both flashing.

Any suggestions?

Hmm the sensor is ok i think, i measured that from the plug on the pcb, and switched the sensor itself out, no difference.
Today I’ll take the board out. See if there is some clear indication of wear/burn/damage on it and also check the relays anyway.

Have you got any other advice on the board itself what to do/check?

Thanks!

Hi, as soon as the washing machine is turned on

[Emiel Ridderikhoff]

Hi it looks like there is a dedicated relay. The thing is, the wire to the hearing element has the red round pressure switch at the top of the machine in series with it. With no water/pressure, it makes no contact. That would be a normal situation right? As it should be?

So why would it say there is no connection, while under normal circumstances there shouldnt be in the first place?

Hi Dave, thanks for replying.
Yes that’s all checked. the sensor and the heater itself… all good
