never had a duff motor?

cant have done many then

[helo_75]

or the motors fubar?

it sounds like its not reversing!!

quite possibly timer

[helo_75]

the capacitors duff

[helo_75]

its more likely an airflow issue, or ud get an error code….id check the pump filter isnt partially bloced too. it could also not be spinning right well, they just havent noticed?

[helo_75]

erm, far be it from me to play devils advocate, but who says the heater shouldnt be on on reverse tumble?

cos, according to the service manual –

a2-a3 (b3 b5) is the heater switching ( off for the last few clicks)

the only time the timer would be on is if it never switches the heater off

unless im reading it wrong that is?

is what he changed

with the plug out, take the top off, and youll see it poking out of the heater box on top

best way is to check it with a meter for continuity. and if faulty, replace it

just make sure you unplug it , cos trust me, it hurts

[helo_75]

did it and wrecked it..

no, far from it

IF you had a laptop with emit software installed, with the right cable, and a hardware key (only supplied by indesit, to their own engineers and comet )

AND an account that allows you to programme these things, then ur pretty much gonna find nothing out

however, if you want to pm me your email adress, ill send u the info, cos im that kind of guy

please try not to presume?

[helo_75]

yes/ for software/no/no

dont go there

[helo_75]

if u genuinly have checked for continuity , then youd know

and no, the element isnt independent of the stats

cos if they worked the way you say, it would set on fire

its usually the cut iout over the heater that goes

[helo_75]

wd40 is fine, but it will probaby want changing soon

[helo_75]

you did a continuity test on a thermistor?

people complain of poor wash results all the time, and its rarely a fault on the machine

however, if you are conviced its at fault and the heater and thermistor check out, it has to be a pcb issue.. it would be worth checking for dry joints around the relay areas

[helo_75]

tacho LOOKS good?

theres a good chance the pcb is faulty but u need to check the tacho and/or wiring with a meter

[helo_75]

so even though its written all over the machine its a lie? im thinkin thats both illegal and incorrect

can we have a reasonably structured post that makes sense please?

[helo_75]

unless the condensers full of fluff?
