That is the correct damper kit. Are the two thin restraint springs still in place on top of the drum?
I mainly view the site on my iPad using Safari browser, can’t remember the last time I saw an add or pop up?
Will sort out some tech info tomorrow, it’s all on my main PC which is off atm. Actually finding a pressure switch at all or at a reasonable price may not be easy.
Send me a PM with your email address and I will send you some info.;)
Just remembered, all these ISE machines came with a full schematic wiring diagram slotted under the pipe work or wiring on top of the dispenser drawer, has yours gone missing?
Looking at the tech the analogue pressure switch is used for doorlock, heater and overfill/drain controls. The digital sensor is used to control the various levels.
From years of experience with all types of appliances, analogue pressure switches that carry a heater load can after many years of use suffer from burning or sticking contacts. If it is a pressure switch failure I would suspect the analogue switch before the digital one.
The original part number for the analogue switch is 8078221Morning Don, to be perfectly truthful I never had a single pressure switch problem on any ISE. It’s also true to say that pressure switch faults are not common on most makes of appliances in general. Blowing into the digital pressure switch is to be avoided and it is not advisable. Pressure hose blockages or tiny holes in the pressure hoses are the main cause of 95{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of fill/drain errors. Small water leaks onto the thermistor on the side of the drum did give the occasional but very rare spurious error messages. Going out shortly but will fire up my main PC this afternoon and peruse what tech info I still have.:)
Doesn’t the neutral for the whole machine run through one of the stats Dave? Been a while since I retired now but seem to remember that.:)
The filters are not the cause of the valves leaking water into the drum.Either some residue has got into the faulty valve or the valve diaphragm has failed. As long as you turn both taps off as soon as the wash programme has finished you will be fine using the filters in any way you wish.
Cheers Murv, suspected as much when dryer didn’t register on Hotpoint spares web pages. Might try and lubricate them first. Are the original pulleys the standard, fatter ones, used to be X2345677 or similar?
