Re: beko fridge/freezer Model CDA539FW-2
As much detail as you’ll get is on these two articles:
http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/help/fix- … hermistors
https://help.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/support … er-sensors
I believe Dave sends a copy of the bulletin with each sensor, not sure if that’s electronic or not.

Re: beko fridge/freezer Model CDA539FW-2
No.
The resistance of the sensor is read continuously by the board and the board switches on and off the compressor etc based on that info.
Wrong or invalid resistance and it all goes pear shaped, just as described.

Re: Zanussi ZWF1437 Motor gone. Replace?
At that age, no, not worth the risk.
Even if there is a test cycle for it, it’d show you that in the LCD screen so that’d be of no use.

Re: Beko CDA543FW-2 fridge freezer air sensor replacement
I’ve tried to stay quiet on this thread but, here’s the deal… apologies in advance for the bluntness…
Putting a fridge or fridge freezer on a timer is nuts, barmy and potentially dangerous.
The temperature will not be correct, it will not cool properly and could lead to bacteria growth in your food.
So if you do this then die from salmonella or something, don’t say you weren’t warned. Not that you will be able to if you die of course or, if your children get sick or worse.
The temp in the freezer is regulated but the temp in the fridge so, if the fridge is wrong.. guess what? That’s right, all the frozen food will not be getting stored correctly and, bacteria growth in the food.
Sell or use by dates will be even less use than they already are.
Sorry but it’s so dangerous people need to be aware that this is a VERY bad idea!
There is a small potentiometer board in the light housing, other than telling the main control unit what temperature you want, it does nothing.
The other board is the one that actually has some “brains”.
But, it only does what the thermistors tell it to do by way or reporting back to the board, which in turn switches the compressor on and off, runs the defrost cycle and so on. That means, back to a time, if you put it on one it is not operating or defrosting properly.
And, what happens if it gets stuck on defrost and burns your house down, it won’t seem such a smart idea then will it?
There are multiple article on thermistors, how they work and some on these Beko ones on the site, we give you that for free, thanks for advertising other retailers that don’t even give you that let alone the help on here but I digress. You need to read about them before you start tinkering, understand what they do and why, all the info for these you need is as follows:
http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/help/fix- … hermistors
https://help.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/support … er-sensors
http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/help/fix- … hermistors
All the info is there to allow you to repair these and replace the thermistor. There is no short cut, there’s no hack to get around it. The thermistor will need to be replaced in 99.99999{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of cases or, you will not solve the problem.

Re: beko fridge/freezer Model CDA539FW-2
I can’t see any resistances mentioned on the Beko tech documents but it does sound very much like a thermistor problem.

Re: Zanussi ZWF1437 Motor gone. Replace?
Normally that’s the only way to be sure unless there’s a test mode on it but, even then it’s sometimes not 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}.

Re: Beko washing machine
There’s noting on the tech stuff about that I could find.
One of the guys might have seen it in the field though and know what it is.

Re: Zanussi ZWF1437 Motor gone. Replace?
Yep, they do.
Problem is if the pop they can take the the board out as well.

Re: Zanussi ZWF1437 Motor gone. Replace?
The motor, on a quick look, is listed at £184.
Of course it can be had for a lot less but you’re still looking at about the £100 mark.
So I guess it depends on whether you want to take a £100 punt on it along with the age and condition of the machine.

Re: Electrolux (Crosslee) dryer timer.
That part number seems to be obsolete Jim, changed now to 421309242661, that we show here:

Re: Back to Royal Mail.
Yup they are indeed, along with twice the price or more.
Those options are still there, just expensive if it’s not absolutely desperate.

Re: Back to Royal Mail.
Yeah, depends where you are Jim, it’s a patchy service in places, woeful in others.

Re: Smeg Dryer Just Hums : Dry72BK
There’s not a lot in it.
Board, motor, pump, door microswitch. If there is a cap on the motor it’s not shown as a separate item so no info on it.
