Re: ADP8322 11 flashes
Does the new OWI come complete with new “black grid”? If not, is it clean?
Flow meter whizzing round doesn’t prove it’s working! Usual fault is reed switch inside it. (Use forum searchbox if not familiar with this.)

This might be relevant.
Mike.Re: no go w/m aeg
I’d guess fids isn’t going to be able to access diagnostics when he’s got no lights or display 🙁 .
Fids, have you meggered / disconnected individual components to see if there is any change in the machine’s behaviour?
Have you examined board / boards for visible damage?
Have you tried squeezing / tightening and wiggling connector blocks?
I wouldn’t want to encourage any unsafe practices of course, but if you do this with the power on and with a wooden stick you may be able to find a loose contact. 😯
Mike.Re: repairmanacademy.com
I reckon this repair academy thing must be why I’ve got no work. One of the three champions they’ve recruited so far must be working round hereabouts somewhere and taking all my customers. :rotfl:
Mike.Re: Zan/Lux main PCB change
A total PITA! Can’t believe how few Lux jobs you have up there that you haven’t had to do this till now.

Mike.Re: hotpoint wdl520 nightmare!
That is one of the weirdest faults I have ever heard of. Time to call in the Penguin! Until he spots the thread, I’d advise trying disconnecting components one at a time and see what happens. Obviously, sometimes nothing will work with a component disconnected but you can get round that by substituting in another one. No need to actually change it, just lead / extend the wires out to a new component safely. You can do this with a heater element, pump, motor for example, without even needing to have an exact match. OK, the job’s going to be a loser, but you’ll surely learn something worth sharing with the rest of us.
Mike.Re: bosch washing machine
I managed to do one by using lots of slim-blade steak knives (job was in a pub!). It’s a bit like changing a bicycle tyre :lol:, although rather more difficult.

Mike.Re: Performing Rights Society
Squadman, that was brilliant!
Surprising though. You’d have thought that by now she’d have heard it all.
Think I might answer next time and have some fun.
Mike.Re: Belling Cooker 633GR (058599123)
Belling are a bit of a nightmare for that sort of thing. Best give them a ring, 0844 815 3746
I had one which was refusing to operate the selector switch which I found out only after replacing stat. Wasn’t sure but think it might have all been down to switch not firmly engaging with stat. Deceptively complex little bugger.
Mike.Re: Door interlock for Bosch WAE24467GB/05
Be very careful. Years ago blew up a Bosch module just by fitting wrong lock (looked same.)

Test Mode
Make sure the appliance is empty of water before running Diagnostics as it does not pump out before starting to fill and therefore you could overfill the appliance.
Open the door and set the program to the first program. (Normally rinse).
Turn the power off.
Press and hold the start button and while holding turn the power on.
After a little while the start button will flash, release the button.
Press the start button once and close the dishwasher door.
The machine will now run through a diagnostic routine.
If memory serves me right it takes about 20 mins.
The machine will stop during diagnostics if an error is found and will display the error code. If no error is found it will complete the diagnostics and end the programme.To exit diagnostics at any time just press and hold the start button till the programme is cancelled.
