Re: Bosch WVT1260
Has the ‘Child Lock’ been activated by accident I wonder? Is a Key icon shown on the screen? If so and to de-activate it simply press and hold the start button for over 4 seconds. 🙂

Re: Whirlpool to do a recall on Hotpoint dryers
Ah! So at last dryer capacitors are mentioned in the media as being a cause of many cases of tumble dryer fires, well, well, well. Our own trade comments in forum on these capacitors is well visited and yet the likes of Qualtex are non plus on the issue of their lethal weakness…hmmm?

I wonder if, with that multimeter, you have checked to confirm full continuity across all the motor pins?
Re: Bosch spinning too fast?
Rapid wash (aka Quick wash) is meant ONLY to refresh clothing and not to clean them. Clothing that is creased or has been stuck in a drawer over winter and smells fusty. That is what quick wash does with a tiny amount of detergent. It is not a quick way of cleaning your dirty weekly wash, it just won’t happen. The results of which you have experienced. Foam everywhere, not rinsed. You need to select a FULL wash cycle relative to the type of garment you intend to wash. Washing machines these days work on LOGIC and if the operator goes illogical the machine cannot compromise no matter how you may wish it so.

We can find the strength of resolve to forgive you for that. 😉
Joking aside, the Pressure switch has nothing to do with your problem. Chances are it is either a connection issue, usually the motor plug block, or carbon dust shortng out the tacho generator. OR, worst still scenario, the tacho magnet on the motor armature is cracked. What is certain in my mind is that it isn’t a problem with the control module (circuit board). You will need to strip and clean that motor. Mark the way the stator fits so you reassemble the same way.
And promise me you won’t kick the cat if non of the above succeeds. 😆

Then it’s time to check the motor brushes. Chances are they need replacing. 😉
Re: Help wanted.
I wonder what it would take, and more importantly, how much it would cost, to ship a rusty old 1851 from Swaffham to Donegal ?
Re: Zanussi overheating?
Under normal circumstances whenever a fault is detected by the electronics an error code would be displayed in the window. The first thing that happens at the start of any programme cycle is that the drain pump runs for 15 seconds or so. Just running for 5 seconds therefore would suggest that the pump has perhaps overheated on the previous wash cycle and needs replacing. However if that were the case then usually it should throw up an ‘E20’ error code in the window. For it just to stop is odd and I don’t have an answer at this stage. But it is an old machine and pumps frequently wear out after 3 – 5 yrs hard work so my guess is the drain pump needs replacing.
