Re: DWF30 starts filling then stops

I think im going to scrap it to be honest, its a good 5 years old and it would be foolish chucking money at it when it could be put towards a nice new shiny one 8)

So thanks to all of you for your help and now the search for a new one begins………any recommendations? 😆

Re: DWF30 starts filling then stops

sounds expensive :rolls:

I have managed to track down off the net the test routine for it and it doesnt even appear to want to run that. I hold down s2 and s4 and turn on the machine and they both flash which is apparently correct but when i press the 2 again which is supposed to start the test they just keep flashing and i hear what sounds like a click come from inside.
Any ideas?

when it cuts out the water level is level with the metal removable cover in the bottom where the filter is housed.

I dont recall any faint buzzing but i will check again when i get home later.

Thanks for your help

Re: DWF30 starts filling then stops

Thats right, there were no flashing lights, it just stayed on the cycle light after it cut out.

The cleaning of the matrix was abit tricky, i started off just trying to shake it with water in but that didnt work, so then diluted some caustic soda, poured it in and left it for about 30 mins, that shifted some of it but i then went for it big style, now i know this isnt recommended but i thought what the hell i cant make it any worse so i poured some caustic down into the gunged area and followed it with some boiling water…….that certainly did the trick and after a couple of attempts it was as clear as a bell. 😀
