Re: Siemens Dishwasher Hydrosensor – no heat

I have now had chance to look at the dishwasher. It did indeed turn out to be a dry joint on the circuit board (see photo – scorched joint towards bottom right). I have repaired that and it now seems to be working and heating up again fine.

Thanks for the pointer Martin as I wouldn’t have thought to look at the circuit board first. Saved me a lot of time and expensive from replacing a heater which wasn’t actually at fault!

Cheers!

Re: Hoover Logic 1200 A3786 Counterface ring

Thanks Martin. I have ordered a replacement bearing set and will replace that, the bearing seal and new tub seal at the same time.
Thanks also for the observation on the counterface being a bit proud. The old one was quite proud too, although the new counterface is slightly thicker than the old one which is not helping. Once the new bearings arrive I’ll check that they are going to sit properly and fully up against the step on the shaft before fitting. It may be a case that I’ll need to take the counterface off again and remove some of the material underneath it. The old one appeared to be stuck on with a mastic type material but there was some corrosion underneath it which had caused it to lift.

Re: Hoover Logic 1200 A3786 Counterface ring

A brief update on this in case it helps someone else and a further question. I managed to get a drum counterface for a Candy machine “Candy Washing Machine Drum Counterface. Genuine Part Number 09001686”. This seems more widely available (on Amazon, ebay etc) and it does fit. The outer diameter is the same but the inner diameter is a few mm larger. I have held it in place with some epoxy which is also padding the mm centre gap between the shaft and counterface (see pic). The bearing seal does seem to form a good seal with the counterface.

Now my question. Having stripped the machine this far should I also replace the bearings and seal? They are only a few months old and seem to be in good condition, although the bearing has clearly had water inside due to the leak. Driving out the bearings last time was a real pain which I would prefer to avoid doing again, but equally I want to avoid them failing in a few months if they’ve had water ingress. I am assuming I should change the bearing again now whilst I am at it, but any advice?

Thanks. .

Re: Hoover Logic 1200 A3786 Counterface ring

Thanks guys. Martin’s description of the part is correct. My understanding is that it is Hoover part no 09078080, but I have also seen it referred to as no 682546 and 18108wv. I think my best chance is finding one in the bottom of someone’s drawer somewhere. I contacted a supplier and they said they used to make counterfaces for Hoover over 15 years ago, but their stock is long since gone.

Re: Siemens Dishwasher Hydrosensor – no heat

Thanks Trilobite. I’ll check that out first. Much obliged.

Re: Siemens Dishwasher Hydrosensor – no heat

Thanks Martin. I’ve yet to pull the machine out and won’t have chance to do so for several days. But once I do I’ll take a look at the circuit board first. Thanks for the guidance.

Re: Hoover Logic 1200 A3786 Counterface ring

Hi Kaibart,
Thanks for your help.
I don’t think that is the right part – it is the ceramic counterface ring which sits on the spider that I am looking for. This mates against the seal which is the part you have listed. I have subsequently managed to find a link and a Hoover part no 09078080. https://www.espares.co.uk/product/es185 … rface-seal
Although I fear this part is no longer available too. Any help in locating one gratefully received.
