Do new power-units still exist?
nope theyre obsolete
im really starting to hate indesit
theyre making independants jobs practically impossible to do
i feel for you guys, i really do, keep your heads up, and dont let that shower shine through
its been said, they dont tell people what you charge, or recommend your service, so why should you do it for them?
you can, but youll be lucky if theres anyone prepared to dish out that info to ya
might be best if you called someone out….
if im honest, and im sure the rest of the guys will agree.. that particular dryer is an absolute nightmare to work on
to get to where you need to be, its a lid off/ front off/duct off/ drum out job… with lots of sharp edges and tightly, badly positioned wiring that tends to pull off its relative position
then youve gotta hope you find the leak, because your gonna have to reassemble it fully to test it.. and if it leaks… disaster
not a nice dryer to work on, and thats the reason people are hesitant
sorry to come across negative, but honesty is a policy we use keenly
its nearly always the heater relay
youll have fun identifying the right board and SMARTCARD for that
unless you use emw of coursedo a search, theyre pretty bobbins
motor might just be wet
let it dry outespecially if u took the hoses of to check flow?
F01….OFF, OFF, OFF, Flash, OFF.
well thats just thrown a spanner in the works
thats a motor triac fault on the pcb
not good
no.. the one on the filter should be a flushing valve for the filter, and should be mains pressure.. the one at the back is designed just to keep the back of the drum cool so the steam will condense
back to my original post…. REMOVE the filter completely, and disconnect the flushing valve
youll find the results are a lot better
it was taken off on later models, but readded on the very latest one
i still take them off cos theyre crap
oh.. and your flashing lights
top to bottom ( 1-5) which lights are flashing ie 1 and 4 or 2 and 3
maybe that might point to another fault
we’ll get there, dont worry
checking it isnt enuff
it seems to be circulating the air
r u 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} sure the waters getting down the back of the drum, via the other grey hose?
then u need to check the drain hole between th rear of the condenser and the pump
if u remove the pump (the plastic housing on the rear at the bottom) the drain hole is to the left, at the bottom
in any event, make sure the plug is out
