    ……and check the circulation pump impeller. Could be crud blocking it?

    Heat Exchangers don’t normally leak as a rule. They only need replacing if the flow impeller within wears or the dump valve attached fails. The O ring between the exchanger and the tub a rare failing but once the exchanger is removed evidence of that would be water staining on the s/steel.

    I refer to the main circulation pump and not the drain pump. The latter and PTFE not a good idea.

    The sump is the main plastic body under the filter where the drain pump and circulation pump are attached.

    If you haven’t been using salt and so then hard water has been circulating through the matrix (aka Heat Exchanger) several problems can occur. The drain vent valve (half way up the lhside of the matrix could be leaking. The air vent o ring on the side of the tank holding the heat exchager in place could be an issue. The O rings that connect the hoses at the bottom of the heat exchanger a maybe?

    Other leaks could be from the welded seam of the s/steel tub especially in the corners. The sump gasket perished. And, the main circulating pump a possibility.

    Most of these minor leaks can be a right bu&&er to find. :eeek:

    OK, this is getting a little complicated. E10 is a filling problem so you need to check out the water inlet valve. Maybe the main wash valve isn’t working? Meanwhile reconnect the heater as I think that line of enquiry could be a red herring.

    …but then having disconnected the heater terminals and made wiring safe did you then turn it on and try a cold wash?

    The resistance of the NTC by the way is OK.

    It’s the drain pump cover and just clips into place above the pump (See user booklet shows drawing)

    Max dry load (7kg) of damp bath towels should be enough to make it grunt ‘n squeal.

    Agree entirely, besides the stat are riveted as Dave mentioned. Too much aggro avoided by sticking in a new element. Dignity intact! 😉

    Come the revolution, when the U.K. breaks its EU shackles a newly formed ‘Product Safety Authority’ should ensure greater product design and build, quality with quantity. Meaning the cr&p that’s currently produced and sold and scrapped will be a thing of the past.

    Come the revolution. 😀

    Well the limiter does appear to be the problem. It is located at the back of the oven cavity near the fan I think you’ll find. Power isolated, oven out, back panel off to check it out.

    Also you need to establish that your oven is not overheating anyway. And you need to check if the oven fan AND the cooling fan are operating as they should. 😉
