oh dear.. another member of the fit for purpose brigade

because it locks but because the motors out of circuit the machine wont continue

ddsdds is spot on, its very common

[helo_75]

mmmm

here goes

there is a foamed in thermistor, which is usually the culprit to be fair

its not a nice job, its quite involved and messy

a pcb usually cures it

how are u with a multimeter?

[helo_75]

i did wonder…

[helo_75]

unfortunately not

the number on the pcb is

(21)country of manufacture (50079) commercial code .these are on the label on the machine

[helo_75]

[helo_75]

faulty pcb, more common than katie price

[helo_75]

unplug it

[helo_75]

if it doesnt power up, depending on serial number, it might be worth checking the heater cut out

[helo_75]

you should have seen the tech bulletin, surely?

[helo_75]

take the top off, if it has one of the new blue, analogic switches .. theres a simple cure…
