    You are, it’s fitted in the side of the matrix. Slots in above the built in impeller.

    Door interlock fault probably? What is the model number of your machine anyway?

    Very likely the pump is worn out. If there is any lateral movement of that pump impeller that is enough to indicate the bearings are worn and it therefore jams. Works OK from cold but once it gets hot it jams.

    Have you removed the pump cover and checked the pump impeller is not restricted (fish bone, general food detritus). User manual gives clear instructions on how to do this.

    No? What a liberty! They say not to believe all you read in the papers but publishing misleading photos goes beyond the pale.

    Oh dear, only bad news I’m afraid as it’s likely as not the 120quid display board is at fault. Unless that is the connection between that and the power module is playing up, or worst still the power board?

    I think this machine is covered under the 5 year warranty? If so time to get BSH in.

    Most often it is the Reed Switch (00611317) in the fill matrix unit that goes AWOL.

    Turn the decor door around 180 degrees and rout out new hinge fixing holes yourself. 💡

    Re: Siemens LC7591/03 Cooker Hood nightmare

    Just a thought: As you know, often a control module will do diddly squat unless all of the components it controls are functional. If you’re lucky that module will give an error code to indicate which component isn’t playing ball. They ‘self check’ before proceeding. In the case of this cooker hood it’s default setting displays the number 8 and unless the motor is OK it won’t function.

    Looking at the user instructions it should have been possible to switch between exhaust and recirculating though. Was it possible to switch the display between the number 0 and the letter C? That would at least confirm that the original module was OK. I’m sure you can’t answer that now but I reckon the motor was most likely at fault all along. 🙁

    Very little one can say over this other than to come over as being ‘wise after the event’ as it were. An altogether unfortunate situation and typical of punting on hoping an expensive module will solve the problem. Especially as we cannot get a refund on circuit boards it is therefore a risky business and no mistake.

    One possible ‘get out’ is to get the customer to buy the module themselves, that way the onus is entirely theirs. 😉

    That’s what is so incredible there Bob in that the seller went to great pains to emphasise in BOLD type all over the listing that it was simply an empty box! 2 clear photos showed what they were bidding for. It went for £83 + £4.95 P&P and “no returns accepted”.

    Hmm? I wonder what an Apple iMac 27″ Super Retina box would go for?

    Well it doesn’t take much to stop the pump impeller and who’s not to say some other foreign object remains undetected? Still very possible. The other possibility is the pump itself is clapped out? Check to see if there is any lateral movement of the impeller? A sure sign the pump has had its day.
