    Re: Neff DW S5453

    For every 1 that I change the impeller jug in I clean 20 pressure chambers – it could be either but in my experience it is mainly just a case of taking the pressure chamber out and cleaning it.

    If the socket has had the wrong plug in it then the connections won’t make properly and when you put a decent amount of current through them they expand and break contact due to the heat generated by the contact resistance so I would be trying another socket before I looked deeper at the machine.

    I don’t know the particular machine that you are talking about but I would be checking the temperature sensors carefully and the wiring to them.

    Re: Hotpoint WML730G DEAD ?

    If the resistor is in the high voltage part of the circuit and been shorted then quite possible/likely that the switch mode chip may be fried – I don’t have a board here to go any more specific but know from experience that switch mode chips are easy to kill.

    Re: Zanussi Washer Dryer Overheating

    Does it overheat on all programs? I fit does then it suggests to me that the relay on the board has welded in the on position – give it a few sharp smacks with a screwdriver and it should release but will still need replacing.

    Have you meggered the motor? I have seen a few with the armature short to earth, could always try powering it up with the motor disconnected as well.

    Re: Fill Hose Adapter – US to UK

    Unfortunately they go the wrong way and are designed to be fitted to an American hose and British tap where as what I want is one that connects to a British hose and American Valve.

    They are about as much of a bargain as the hoses for the washer which are nearly £30 each!!!

    Re: Bosch WAE24162GB/03 Stuck on Heat even on rinses!?

    My guess is that the heater is controlled by a relay on the board (trace back to find out which one) and that if you check the resistance between the switch contacts of the relay you will find that it is stuck in the on position. If you are not sure if the relay is stuck then meter out its switch contacts then give the board/ relay a sharp smack on a hard surface and test again and you will probably find that the relay will have turned off, either way replace the relay because if it has welded on once it will do it again.

    I’ve had a couple of this range of machines where the thermistor has gone open circuit and then caused the overheat stat to trip.

    Re: Bosch Dishwasher no supply to element

    The stat type object as you describe it contains both the NTC and the overheat stat – I cant remember which side is which but there should be 2 connectors each with 2 wires going to it, the connector with the thicker wires which should be wired in line with the heater is the over temp stat and should NOT be open circuit, the other side is the NTC which should give a resistance value (not short circuit or open circuit but can’t remember exactly what).

    Re: Bosch Dishwasher no supply to element

    2 things I would check are:
    Is the overheat stat tripped and if so is the NTC ok? (both are located in the black/grey unit mounted on top of the heater box (overheat one side and NTC the other)
    Is the pressure switch on the end of the heater getting power?

    Re: TDS……ARGH!!!!!

    I have it working on windows 7 (Professional 64 bit) so I know that it can be done.

    Microsoft Access is a database program and is what is being used in the back end of the software.

    This sounds like an issue with adobe reader:
    Can you successfully open PDF files on the PC?
    Try going to “C:Program Files (x86)ElectroluxTDS Offlinediagrams” and choose a couple of different sub folders to go into and then the next sub folders and try to open a couple of random PDFs to see if it will or not – this should tell us whether it is an adobe problem or TDS problem (Note: if you are running a 32 bit windows then it will be “Program Files” not “Program Files (x86)”).

    The one other thing that it might need though I am not yet sure is the microsoft dot net framework (not sure which version it would be but would guess 1 or 2).

    Re: Zanussi ZWG1140M

    E62 is overheat on wash so I would be looking at the NTC for that, what is the insulation reading?
