Re: Lamona Washing Machine HJA8514

I did have a small leak like this a while ago on a hotpoint machine, it took me a while to find it because the machine washed and rinsed ok when empty but as soon as clothes were added it over filled repeatedly, as in this machine. Like you I suspected pressure switch, siphoning, leaking gaskets etc. in the end I changed the pressure switch hose and it solved the problem.

On close examination,of the old hose and with the help of a bubble liquid I eventually found a microscopic hole in a slightly chaffed area. I can only assume the extra weight of washing stretched the tube slightly and allowed it to weep the pressure away.

Just any idea

Re: hotpoint BWM20 board blown

Hi thanks for suggestions, have looked at interlock but it checks out electrically ok. Connections for Door interlock are at other end of board and are not damaged. As far as I can see the only edge connection on this, are related to a washer drier which this machine is not. Trying to upload photos of board and damage but not quite sure how to do it on this site.

Thanks

John

Re: Lamona Washing Machine HJA8514

You dont say if this cycle continues or not. water is not siphoning away is it? Have you checked waste pipe level. May be ok for wash level but to low for rinse level.

Re: Bosch WAA24171GB/12

Hi, just for info changed brushes, existing were well worn but not u/s. Flashing rinse light still showing. Checked motor and PCB over no obvious damage, but noted, no power to door interlock. Any other ideas? Looking more like board fault? from date code machine is only 2 years old but it in a busy pub restaurant so does get a LOT! of use.

Thanks

John.

Re: Bosch WAA24171GB/12

Thanks, yes just the Rinse light flashing. No matter how program is selected, it would allow me to cancel out. door won’t lock nor does waste pump run.
Not sure how old machine is but does get a lot of use so are we just looking at worn brushes? or module. I’ll go back there today and extract machine from its hidey hole. Let you know how I get on

regards,

John

Re: Bosch WAA24171GB/12

Just had second thought on this, do these machines have flood switch? door gasket is not to good. As I said I couldnt get it out today so not able to look.

Thanks

Hope you all have a good year and thanks
