Re: Dishwasher door live
Nick,
Quite the normal for you to have experienced this after your earth supply was disconnected. The reason is that the ‘mains filter’ ( a suppression device attached to the incoming terminal point within the machine) is grounded to earth through capacitance both to the live and neutral supply.
For you to note a 120 volt reading on the door or any suitable earthing point throughout the machine, would be the inevitable consquence of this.
In the trade we learn right from the beginning that THE most important connection in an AC fed electrical circuit is the EARTH.
I’m pleased you realised the problem when you did and sorted it 🙂 Perhaps it also would be advisable for Siemens to check your machine out fully for you, if only for piece of mind 😉

The same advice applies, in that it’s a motor and/or control module problem that needs a bit of expert checking. Sorry no wiring diagrams available, but we may have someone in your area that can advise you via our :-

Re: F 05 Error code on Hotpoint WD640
As it is under guarantee you need to contact Hotpoint direct on 0870 9 066 066 first and foremost.
The fault is associated with drain out (pump blocked or restricted in some way) I expect you’ve been trying to wash something that has given off a lot of fluff and or/debris???

Re: Bosch not taking in enough water
I didn’t tell you this 😉
But you need to take the left hand side panel off and clean out the black rubber hose at the base of the metering tank.
FOR GOODNESS SAKE…DO PULL THAT PLUG FIRST OK???? :zap:

Re: Bosch S530 dishwasher – white deposit on dishware
Salt Valve failure I reckon…easy to sort :tup:
New valve (Part no : 051835 available via emailing spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk)
They usually either go open circuit or just sieze up through time and a new valve will be a cheap and easy way out of your problem. 😀
If you want someone local to fit it for you at a modest cost?…try :-

Re: Hotpoint WD420P
Why bother? It is covered by a 5 years parts warranty….Just give Hotpoint a bell, save the hastle my friend. Besides if the Module has failed it is likely the motor or other component has caused it to fail, they don’t go of their own accord you must realise 😉

Re: Indesit WG1234T – prog sticking + now grinding on rotati
Bra Wire caught between the drums I expect?
Check by shining a torch through the holes in the inner drum to locate. Usually stuck around the heating element at the bottom? Will need extracting after removing and replacing the heater (‘cos you’ll never refit the heater again 🙁 )

Piece of cake for us experts. (The front panel has to be removed 😉 )
Please refer to my first posting for further information…. 🙂

Shir wrote:WD 12 Advantage… is that it?
The pump is behind the bottom plastic kick panel. Simply ease the panel off using a screwdiver on its top edge (no force required). The pump filter cover is accessed by turning anti-clockwise. (Have a few towels ready if the machine is full of water ‘cos it will flood out!!)
When you have dried up, check the impellor behind the filter is clear and free to rotate. Reassemble in reverse order :tup:
Job done!

Usually the hose from the meter tank to the sump gets blocked on these. The floor tray may also be flooded as that same meter tank overflows onto the metal tray underneath and cuts off the water valve.
:plug: DO PLEASE PULL THE PLUG FIRST BEFORE ATTEMPTING REPAIRS :zap:
Personally I would suggest you get an expert in to service the machine and get it back to it’s usual excellent form. Attempting repairs without a clue as to what to look for is asking for trouble. We may have an expert in your area, click on the link below 😉
