Re: leisure range cooker
Its actually shown on the wiring diagram with a part number. You would have to supply the model number.
If you say it is 146c you can get a very close match from RS components or Maplins for about 50p. 😮

Re: ZANUSSI1640W E50
Some fault codes are displayed to the customer as they are things which they may be able to do something about.
E10..possibly not turned the taps on.
E20..Drain or filter blocked.
E40..Door not shut correctly.E90.. is displayed because it is a problem with the electronics and the engineer may not be able to get into the diagnostics.
All other codes are hidden from the customer so they do not attempt diy repairs. 😯
I might be wrong here but I think the E50 will only come up when it first detects the fault and if you switch the machine off you will lose it but the full error code will be stored in the memory. If you then try to start another programme it will only run for a few seconds and then cut off.
Every time you go to a zanussi it is worth going into the diagnostic system and check the last error code before you do anything else. It can save a lot of time, effort and wrong parts ordered.
Re: ZANUSSI1640W E50
Any fault code ending in a 0 is the group fault and is just an indication of the area of the fault. ie. E50 is a fault with the motor circuit. You will then have to go into the diagnostic system and the machine will narrow the fault down to E51, E52, E53 etc. 🙂
Re: zan TD stat
2 screws are removed from inside the drum. You will probably get a stiff neck but you can actually get your head in and see them. 😉 The stat wires are long enough for the stat to come into the drum a few inches to be changed over to the new one.
Re: Zanussi ZWF1220W no spin
Hello Steve,
Don’t know of any machine now which doesn’t have an out of balance system. Some are more sensitive than others, especially the high spin versions. Basically if it spins ok with a normal load then it will be the out of balance system and there is nothing you can do about it. 🙂
Re: Samsung ref side by side
Defrost timings are done by the module. Check elements and thermal fuses (wired in series with elements alongside evaporators). Main element and drain element are wired in parallel but can be split with a plug so you can test individually. Always check both fridge and freezer sides. If the thermal fuse has gone it is worth replacing the defrost sensor mounted at the top of the evaporator as it is probably that which has caused the element to stay on too long.
Re: Samsung ref side by side
Probably a problem with the defrost cycle. If the defrost elements are not coming on then they will just sit there until it has defrosted by using the room temperature. While it is on defrost the temperature display will be locked on the last known temperature before the defrost started. Switching off at the mains resets everything and it will work until it next goes onto a defrost.
Ask the owner if the freezer temperaure suddenly changes when they switch it off and back on.
Can be caused by either the fridge or freezer side but most I have seen have been a problem in the fridge. 🙂Re: samsung american f/f
Condensor fan motor is also controlled by an ambient room temperature sensor mounted in the cover of the top freezer hinge. If the appliance is in a cold room then it will not bother switching the fan on. Can’t remember the actual temperature figures but could look them up for you if you need them. 😀
Re: Oven testing
Hello Martin
Is it oven internal temperatures or external surface temperatures you are after? Bryan has given the basic method of doing the surface temperature test.
