Re: Hotpoint SDW60 – No Hot Water – AL08 “Time Out – He

15p later and all is fixed!
I replaced the zener diode at DZ02 (Which had shorted) and all is good. Just for reference I used a BZX79C 12V (Part No QH16S from Maplin £0.15) Not sure if the ratings quite right (0.5W) But it works.

Thanks again for the quick response.

And of course, which model do I have?….. SDW60P..C..!!! Rubbish!
£65.00 for a new board from Hotpoint and still not sure if that will fix it. 🙁

Thanks for the response, I checked the NTC position, seemed ok, clipped in fairly tightly. I metered the resistance at about 1.9K Ohms at room temp, strapped it to the outside of a kettle and boiled it. Resistance went down to about 1.65K Ohms, I presume this means the NTC is ok. Do you have any details of the components on the control card? It seems that diodes DZ02 and D004 are knackered. It would be good if I can replace the bad components, otherwise I’ll take a chance and order a new card.
