    Was there any sign of water on the motor? they can leak from drum half seal down on to the motor. Do yourself a favour and right it off as N.E to Repair

    Re: Consumer box making funny noise

    Hi Jim

    We used to a have a system in this area that was called “Electretec” where every circuit in the house was controlled by a relay from a central control unit; the relays were all in a box next to the consumer unit. Has your daughter got a similar system? if so then the immersion heater relay sounds to be at fault, may have a loose or burnt contact. If I remember correctly the relays were low voltage control BUT obviously mains voltage to the contacts

    Hi Greg

    Yep the motor was my first thought “so I whipped it out” :rolls: after checking it out via the loom. Brushes/ armature were fine, continuity ok

    BUT I still have a niggling doubt about it under power ๐Ÿ˜• as I hear a relay kick in just before the alarm, could also be a traic. I need the diagnostics to confirm especially at the price of the motors and boards ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

    Dave.

    And do they ever listen to advice. You go back to an appliance that you repaired in the past and notice that they still havn’t had that “damaged ” socket outlet or faulty wiring fixed that you made a point of endorsing on your previous invoice. ๐Ÿ˜ก

    Hi Guys Had one of these a couple of weeks ago not sure if it was the same model, as Greg says check the PCB, mine had a dry joint, I think it was on the relay. Bit of a begger to see though it was just a hairline crack ๐Ÿ˜‰
