Re: Ariston Margherita CDE 12X Flashing Light Problem !!!

Thanks so much for that – much appreciated !!!

however…being as naive as I am…. would you be so kind as to tell me where the pump and the hose is located? I assume I need to whip the lid off and the pump will be accessible from there, and the hose will be obvious once I have located the pump ?

thanks again in advance

Jim,

In the end I couldnt wait until tomorrow, I want to see if this was the problem just now !!!!

you are truly a genius !!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have saved me an absolute fortune! I had called Ariston earlier in the day who offered to send out an engineer for £89 to just look at it, and rethey refused point blank to give me any advise over the phone of what i could even look for before they sent out an engineer!!

anyway, as you said, I took the lid of and found what i assumed to be the heater unit at the top in the middle, and sure enough there was a small thin blue wire that had become disconnected from the a spade connector! I hadnt noticed it when i first looked becuase I wasnt actually looking for a disconnected wire and also it was resting on the plastic coating of the spade connector so it actually looked connected. Anyway, I simply stripped back a bit of the wire and poked it around the spade and slid the connector over it to hold it in place. Turned the power back on, and Hey presto everything is perfect again.

Thanks again so much for that advise. I truly am so appreciative .

you’re a legend.

thanks !!!

Howard
