    Re: Hotpoint Aquarius WDL520 Dryer problem

    Coul be a partial blockage in the sump hose or a failing drain pump, it may run for the short periods of the rinse cycles but fail during the long time it has to run on drying cycle.

    Re: Hotpoint Aquarius WDL520 Dryer problem

    You will get this fault if the water inlet valve to the condensor fails. It can also be caused by a blocked condensor filter but that usually throws up an error message. The small gauze filter that often gets clogged up is actually the part that the first hose you mentioned is attached to at the rear of the heater box. Complete removal of the heater box needed to access for cleaning.

    If you have two hoses going along the back of the machine then you should have the four solenoid cold fill valve. It is possible to test each solenoid with the correct test equipment. the valve assembly has to be changed as a complete unit unless you can find a good solenoid from an old valve. The outlet hose from the valve to the back of the drum is the one that is attached to the condensor valve, the other one is ‘supposed’ to flush the filter.

    Re: Proline tumble drier model tdv60

    This is/was a Hotpoint/Creda machine made exculsively for COMET. As they have ceased trading the chances of getting a wiring diagram are very slim.

    Are there any wires still on the capacitor?

    Senior moment, :clown: Dave is correct, the pressure switch on these does not control the eventual wash fill level, only the overfill level. first click of the switch is the control level which allows the heater to come on, the rest of the fill is timed.

    Pressure switch part No: is C00201957.

    I think it is the four horizontal lights on that, 1,2,3,4 = F15 , dryer heater relay fault.

    Not really with a basic multimeter. you could send it to EMW who will test it for a small fee and also repair it if required.

    Not a common failure on these but I have seen it at least once in the past.

    Re: Hotpoint dishwasher FDW80 – where is leak as rust on flo

    No such luck, it’s a bog standard cheapo Indesit machine. The only way is to unplug, drag it out and tip it onto either it’s back or left hand side looking from front then remove the base. Any rust on the underside may be due to water from somewhere else.

    Hmm, a megger is by far the best option for insulation testing but even a decent multimeter would show if the insulation was really poor on the heater. might be worth having a look at the pcb for signs of blown tracks.

    How long did you leave it before deciding it wasn’t heating, it does take a while before the heater is switched on?
