Re: BEKO DRCS68 condenser dryer fault

Hi Seamy,

Thanks for reply.

Just had it apart again – took pump out and wired it direct to mains. Dead as a dodo.

Ran the machine with pump disconnected and put meter across pump terminals. read 0 for a few mins, then I heard the pcb click and meter read 230V for a min, then pcb clicked and reading went back to 0. It then repeated the cycle a couple of mins later so all looks good there.

For good measure, I put the meter across the pump when it was disconnected and it was open circuit. Its been a long time since I did my electrical principles, but that seems consistent with a dead pump doesnt it?

I’d have expected some sort of impedance/resistance reading from a healthy pump?

Cheers for your help.

Jim
