Re: Ariston Margherita 2000 – I also have a problem!
I dissassemle whole machine to understand cabling and connections. I’ve spend abbout 3 hours. Meanhile I decided to put apart power cables (230V) from signal cables (5V). No luck. The problem persist.
Then I’ve start looking at the PCB to find out where the heater relay is placed. I’ve find no logic so I decided to change relay 1 and 3.
These two relays are connected to CN1, the 4pin left side powerfull connector.
At the local store I’ve found same relays for 2€ each.
Macine starts working like new.
At he link you can see some pictures.
Aha, the washing machine is 8 years old, a bit noisy and the same crap as others.
