Re: Hygena APL8222 Wash Cycle Never Finishes

I think it could be the Heater, although I don’t think it was originally – would the Heater have burnt out by being left on too long ?
I can’t see any way of re-setting it – have looked underneath and there’s not a lot there.
How much would a new Heater and Timer cost for this machine or would it be better to buy a new one?
What would an engineer charge for a call out fee ?

Thank you

There could be a few reasons why it might not be heating, some dishwashers have a “TOC” which is normally a resettable switch. If you have a look under the appliance (with the power off) and see if you can see a thermostat with a little button on it, press the button in, if it clicks, problem solved, if it doesnt – time to look elsewhere. If you have a buzz tester, test the continuity across the heater and see if it buzzes, if it does, great, if not – replace the heater.

If your uncertain about doing it yourself, call out an engineer to check for you.

I think it could be the heater now as I’ve just run it again and the water is cold, and gets stuck at various points in the cycle.
Can’t see any thermostat on the appliance anywhere and manual doesn’t mention it.

Does this sound expensive to get fixed ?

If the machine has an NTC (electronic thermostat) you wont get a bell test reading from it.

Yes I don’t think heating is the problem as it feels hot enough.
Although I could give it another go and check.

What does it suggest if it is not heating correctly ?

Thanks
