Re: Diplomat ADP8234 Error Code E3
Hi there again.
I’ve checked the wiring harness and it all appears to be in good order. I’ve tested for power at the Heater and Stat too with a phase tester and there appears to be power getting to these. When I ran a cycle to try it again the machine kept running for about 3 hrs (still with no heat) until I gave up on it and switched it off. It now seems to keep running rather than follow a cycle. Whereas previously it went through a cycle, didn’t heat and gave error E3.
I found another engineer today, but he wanted £45 call out fee then £18 per hour plus parts so I decided not to use him.Re: Diplomat ADP8234 Error Code E3
Hi again. No I didn’t check the old spares to see if they were faulty, but I am assuming that the new parts are working and have connected them exactly the way the old ones were. I ordered the Thermostat from you as an engineer who called said that it was likely to be the problem, however after several phone calls and about 3 months trying to get him to come back I decided to try and repair it myself. The new Stat has only 3 connectors whereas the old one had 4 two of which were only linked to each other. Your spares dept. advised me that the new one was linked internally so did’nt need the fourth connector. The only thing now is that I have a ‘spare’ connector on the new stat which is not connected to anything. Could this be the problem? and if so what should it be connected to? Could it be the other Stat that is fitted in the door?
