    Re: Dishwahser diagnosis

    I suppose a second opinion would cost a lot of money though ? I don’t Really want to get a new machine but the fact that I have had problems with this technician before I think I would be better off getting a new one. Iv seen the new Eco Beko which I might just get and always keep an extended warranty on it. Frustrating but heho, such is life I suppose x

    Re: Dishwahser diagnosis

    My OH just received an email with the report on. It’s says the sump leaked, and because the anti flood switch burnt out it water kept filling the base causing an earth fault in the motor. Repair costs in excess of insurance policy.

    So I must have got the wrong end if the stick.

    Oh well ! New dishwasher for me and it won’t be a bosch. Still don’t like the technician from not fixing the fridge ! Lol

    Thanks for your help once again !

    Re: Dishwahser diagnosis

    To be honest if my other half was here he would have but I thought I would have been lectured about using the machine when it had leaked and had tripped the electrics ! Iv had a bad experience with the same technician when he came to look at our fridge (all out appliances are bosch unfortantly) he dismissed the reason when I said the cause he told couldn’t have the cause, and no repair was done. I was going to complain about it but as the fridge is working and it’s jsut one do the functions (super cold) that’s didn’t work I left it. Now I just think we have a technician that’s not really bothered. Think I will get the OH on the phone tomorrow and see what they say. Thanks for your advice x

    Re: Dishwahser diagnosis

    Hi, it’s a bosch sms50e02gb.

    Would the motor still need replacing ? I thought the anti flood device would stop it working all together until the red lever had been reset. All I did was leave it a couple of days then tried it again and it was ok. I did keep checking for water underneath though.

    He said it will cost £320 to repair but the insurance only covers £300 so the cover will be cancelled and we could either pay for it yo be repaired or replace the machine.

    Iv pulled it out to see if any excess water came out when he looked at it and there’re a pile of screws on the lid and the power cable and polystyrene inside.

    I looked on espares and the only motor for our model wasn’t that expensive so I dont think that can be the right part comapred to some motors for other models which were well ver £100.

    I dont know weather to ask for a second visit from another technician.

    We have no luck with appliances …

    How would I check it or unblock it ? I took the impeller cover off and made sure it wasn’t restricted by something and it turned fine. Many thanks.

    Update

    My OH messed with it last night.

    He managed to switch it off using the on/off button, I turned it in this morning and ran a programme, I heard the pump try a couple of times then an e25 code cam up and the check water illuminated, have checked the water inlet by the aqua stop and the microfilter is not blocked.

    Any ideas now please, many thanks.

    The hole is always full of water which over spills under the salad bins sorry forgot to mention ! Think we’ll have another bash later when OH comes in making sure the wire is coming out of the bottom and not just hitting a blockage

    Re: Hotpoint CTD00p Tumbl Dryer

    Yeah it was like for like its worked for about 18 months to 2 years fine since it was changed so i hope so. It was exactlt the same last time aswell.

    Would the outlet pump still run and heat at the same time ?

    I dont mind getting the bits to change just need to know whats best to change really.

    Thanks for your help i appreiate it. We were just gonna get a new dryer to be honest as this ones about 6 years ols now anyway but we cant afford it just yet!
