K.

Thanks for that K – will look into it.

Do you have any tips?

When I got there I found I could move the machine into the walk way, it just can’t be removed from the utility room without removing the radiator. I took the front of the machine but in future I might give it a go without doing that. Cheers, Mark

There wasn’t any run or start caps for the compressor on this model. Not sure where a supressor cap would be.

Took out the control board and checked continuity to the NTC sensor (new sensor). All good. Still getting F03 error. Has to be the PCB.

Thanks – I’m back tomorrow so will check this.

F03 = NTC sensor on the element

[Mark Flint]

Thanks Dave!

Just a final update to this thread. It was indeed the “litres counter” – I replace the whole pressure chamber.

Brackets fitted successfully. Took a while to figure out as the side panels cannot be removed on this model.
1) outer door off
2) kick strip off
3) metal frame with front legs behind the kick strip off
4) with door open, unscrew top of the hinge attached to the inner door by 2 screws
5) unscrew 2 bottom screws of hinge attached to side panel
6) remove bar which goes horizontally across the door connecting both hinges
7) pull the hinge down and it will come out.

The part that took the longest was refitting the door latching mechanism that sprung out when removing the outer door.

also full power on any ring is not needed for long usually as once things start to boil you turn them down

Dave

Fair point. Thanks Dave, have a good weekend

Was that for induction hobs? This one is a ceramic hob.
