Re: Indesit DI620 – Please help 🙂
Is your fuse box fitted with an rcd. If so you may have a leak or water Ingress into the level sensor. Does it attempt to pump out water?

indesitjunk – Thats some great work there well done! I too have not wanted to shell out for a new board and also metered out most of the board and found most things as expected apart from D0004 which shows the same low (sub 4k) resistance in both polarities so I assumed is was probably OK and was just reading back through other components. Although its labelled D0004 and not DZXXX it does appear to be Zener. Was this the one you replaced, if not which one did you find was shot on yours?
Thanks for the help – great work.
Cheers

Re: Indesit DI620 – Please help 🙂
Hi Guys
Well it seems I have the same problem with serial no 612112347 which I assume needs a C00143206 card.
Thing is I have took the machine apart then stood it back upright. I started a cycle and after the initial fill I opened the door. I then tilted back the unit pulled the terminals off the heater and connected my multi-meter. I closed the door and the machine started cycling again with my meter reading 240volts across the heater leads. After a few mins the relay on the control card clicked out and the voltage dropped to 26volts where it remained with lights 2 and 4 flashing.
I assume therefore that the flashing 2 and 4 were there because it could not measure a heater attached but its interesting that it was still outputting the full voltage at some points yet the element stayed cold.
By the way my element is reading 29ohms so I am confident thats ok.
Could this be the card or something pretty simple on the board. The board looks good visually with no burns. Heater element looks like new. Overheat stat is good and the level sensor is working and so is the door switch. I can’t see any other items affecting the power to the heater so I am a bit perplexed.
Could it be that the card is not supplying enough current? In which case it should be fairly straight forward to isolate the offender.
Any help gratefully received.
Many thanks in advance
James
