    Re: Tricity/Bendix AW1400W

    Many thanks to Tubs, the information he gave me came up with error 52.
    Motor/tacho/wiring all appear fine.
    Removed module and can see burn marks and tracking on the component side of the board, just below the heat sink near a variable pot.

    Electrulux code 132148001
    Firmware version W1D00109
    AKO Code 547 502
    Lp.auto (50630)

    Looks like water ingress from soap dispenser has seeped across the top edge of the machine, into the module.

    I’m guessing that this mod will be on the pricy side.????

    Do EMW/QER repair these yet?

    If I remember correctly, the official description of the colour was amethyst 😉

    Re: Indesit W93 washer switch rotates of own free will

    It sounds like a heater failure, this could have damaged other components, not safe to keep using if it flashed then fused. When the control knob starts to rotate the neon light will flash a set number of times, if you count these it will give a code we can try and interpret for you.
    Would advise getting the machine looked at ASAP, please pull the plug if you intend to investigate further.

    Have a look here

    Re: Hotpoint Aquarius WMA32

    When you fit the new lifter, do you ‘raise’ the metal locking tab on the drum. This is towards the front of the drum and clips up under the lifter. You should get a positive ‘click’ when you push the new lifter back in place. Also make sure that all the locating lugs on the side are fitting into their slots correctly.

    Just a thought, you are fitting the correct part, there are 3 different lifters. The early type needs a special tool, a drill and small plastic rivet ( and they still come adrift).
    If you are fitting the early type in place of the MK2 lifter they will come out very quickly.

    What is the serial number of your machine ( usually on the door near the hinge)
    If your serial number begins with 86 you need a 1603824 lifter, if it is 85 or less you need a 1603296 lifter ( this one needs the rivet)
    I had a customer last week that was sent the wrong lifters by Hotpoint, even though the had all her appliance details on file. 😥

    EDIT: If you had the drum changed by Hotpoint to cure the bearing fault it will have the Mk2 lifters.

    Actually, looking in an old 2002/2003 SEME catalogue the AEG/Gorenje/Whirlpool Part No:481931088529 looks exactly like the one I have in front of me.

    I asked her about the flashes but she didn’t have a clue, with a noisy, smelly dog barking so loud I could hardly think I didn’t hang around.

    That info is very useful, I will be able to use that without having to get the machine out.

    Thanks.

    Had the same problem a while back, Martin kindly sent me the required info. Needed a bit of translating from the Italian in places but did the trick.

    Was it a solenoid valve, or the valve body that fits onto the Circulation pump, with the bellows and ‘O’ ring. The Hotpoint 1801538 valve moulding is listed in PF as £15.48 !! Perhaps they use a different one on your machine.

    Strange thing is, it has not thrown up any error codes/flashes.

    Sad to say, I don’t think the customer will either, 😥

    In this case I would have done the repair if they insisted, my judgement was that with luck it would still run for a few years, but even though the vitreous drum looks fine on the outside, I cannot see the inside condition, or know if the timer is going to fail soon. My feeling is that there are too many parts obsolete or soon to be so for this machine to be repaired. Had I done the repair and a major failure occured later, I would have refunded the cost of my repair. That is why I advised her to think about replacing the machine.
    If I go to any machine, regardless of age that I do not consider fit for repair then no amount of pleading will get me to go ahead.
