Sadly that’s outside of my comfort zone. Dealing with live boards plugged in to the mains is a bit too much for me.
New board ordered. Such a pain all caused by one daft mistake of not turning it off when moving the control board to put things back together. Not sure which deity I had displeased for this one
Replacement IC and resistor fitted today. No joy unfortunately. I guess I fried more on the board than I have been able to identify with my limited skills 🙁
And in case it helps with wattage identification, the resistor is 8.5mm * 3.65mm. The 3watt ones I have found so far are way larger.

Amazing, thank you. Just tested it with the multimeter and it’s reading as open so I guess it’s blown.
You think it’s a 3W one?
If so I guess I just have to find the right thing to buy. Wish I had waited when ordering the IC, it was £10 postage, I could have got this at the same time! If I’m not careful I’ll have spent the same on parts/postage as buying a whole new board! Is there a supplier you folks in the trade use for things like this?
Or, bit of an odd query, but is it something you have stock of? Could I PayPal you costs and postage if you were able/prepared to send me the part you’d use?
Final thing, just to check: I *think* it’s 2.2ohm rather than 22?
Cheers
russ.whoops something went wrong with the link
this one should work

Thanks for the tip Dave, could you identify the fusible resistor from this image? The blown IC is upper right.

I managed to identify it….then found the blown off front which confirmed it! It was an LNK363pn
Unbelievably I spent all of yesterday trying to ID it using Google and eventually got there. Tonight for some reason I thought “I’ll give Bing a try” and it led me straight to a thread on here with a guy trying to I’d exactly the same chip on the same machine! Unfortunately he didn’t respond to say if swapping the chip fixed things.
I have a replacement IC ordered, but I’m worried that the second I turn the machine on it will blow again. Finding someone with the same issue at least gives me a bit of hope that it’s a part that does fail from time to time.
I found the issue, a blown IC on the control board. Unfortunately it’s not got any lettering left on it for part identification! I’m trying to find either a high res image of the board to see what the part is, or a schematic.

tested the fuse in the plug, it’s fine. By terminal you think mainboard frazzled? Is there anything else it could be.
I took a closer look at the pump and found it was quite hard to turn and noticed that there was hair and some kind of plastic thread packed in around the shaft. I cleared that all out and it was spinning freely. Plumbed it back in and did a test rinse/drain and it worked. Woohoo. Then while putting it back together I moved the control panel facia before I’d turned it off at the wall, and tripped the electrics. Now it won’t turn on at all. So I went from “yes! fixed it at zero cost and we can get on with the mountain of washing” to “I cannot believe it” in the space of 2 seconds.

got it. I was thinking it was something stuck in the machine, but it was the very end of the outlet pipe…..hair bobbles. Another problem solved with the help of the peeps on ukwhitegoods. Many thanks.

Re: ISE W1607W F11 error code
Thanks K, yes F11 is a draining error. I’m not quite sure where you mean to look though. So far I’ve just looked behind the access panel on the front bottom left, which is behind the pump I think, and there is hole/pipe off to the right of that which I have reached as far as I could (not very) up.
cheers

Re: integrated whirlpool adg 7550 – very noisy
Is there any additional information I could provide that might help with a diagnosis?
Re: ISE W1607W F11 error code
Just thought I’d fire in a quick update: not had any issues since we reduced the amount of washing liquid. Thanks for all the help
Re: ISE W1607W F11 error code
Hi,
Thanks for the detailed reply. I agree about the unlikelihood of intermittent faults in an electro-mechanical system. Unless there is heat involved I guess which may cause failures through expansion/contraction of electrical joints.
We’ll give using a bit less detergent a go (Ariel, which I assume is reasonable quality, and in a soft water area.) I find it hard to believe though that industrial settings like prisons as mentioned in the “people that use this awesome washer” page of the manufacturer website would put up with such a temperamental and seemingly delicate system.
cheers
Russ
