Re: Bosch WFD2060 w/m – Power avail but no lights, noise or
Looking at the PCB a bit more closely I’ve found 2 x burnt out tracks, a Transistor that has a burst casing so thats probably damaged. On the other side of the board there is a lot of overheating damage in the main power supply area . There is a Transformer that looks fried.
Basically the board is shot.
Re: Bosch WFD2060 w/m – Power avail but no lights, noise or
Looks like one of the PCB tracks has burnt out in the area that you mentioned.
Trouble is, was it a dodgy solder track that just overheated and burnt out, or did something else further down the line cause a short circuit ???
Hmmm I think i’ll try to repair this one first and see what happens, then maybe get a new/exchange board. I’d hate to buy a new board and then watch it fry.

.Re: Bosch WFD 2060 washing machine – Door seal replacement ?
Thanks for the reply. I had a closer look and found the other spring retainer once i’d removed the front wire/spring retainer. I will buy a new door seal in due course, however turning the seal through 180° did the trick for the moment, cured the leak 99.99{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} and allowed us to get the machine going again, which was essential as we had a big pile of washing and the weather was nice and blowy 🙂
BTW, you don’t need to remove the front panel to fit the inner spring you can do everything through the front door opening, although admittedly it is fiddly and i did need to borrow my wifes spare pair of hands to re-fit the spring, on condition that i didn’t swear 🙂
Re: Indesit C 239 NF (UK). Fridge OK – Freezer not working
Just to give you all a follow up to this snag ( before posting another Q about my faulty Bosch washing machine 👿 ).
I’ve had idesit service guys out on two occasions. each time it was discovered that the refrigerant had leaked out , unfortunately they were unable to either trace the location of, or fix the leak. The did top up the refrigerant on both occasions to ‘keep me going ‘ until a replacement machine arrived. I ordered the replacement about 4 weeks ago now, and keep getting apology notes from Indesit/Hotpoint saying there will be another 2 week delay. I am still in the same situation as before with the freezer being very unreliable , but the fridge working fine.
Based on my experience I could not personally recomend this brand to anybody.

Is it running constantly (24/7) and how hot is it ?Dave.
Hello Dave , thanks for replying.
Obviously i can’t monitor the compressor all of the time, however i do think that it is coming on and off , for example if i switch off at the mains and then switch back on again it is a while before the compressor kicks in again. When I looked this morning the freezer fan wasn’t running , but then it started later on, so the fn comes on and off.
The compressor is Hot to the touch but not to a huge degree, I can hold my hand against it, but only for a few seconds. There is a small amount of water in the plastic collection tray on top and so it isn’t so hot that it evaporates it completely or quickly.I also noticed that the pipes on the freezer evaporator started to freeze , with visible frost on them, and the temp started to drop a little, but it is now raised again and the frost has disappeared.
HTH.
Edit: I’ve just used a thermometer to measure and i would say that the body of the Motor assy is approximately 58+º C
