I’d just give it a slap and tell it that it was too young to smoke and send it to bed without supper.

Re: Indesit WDG1295 W – has been smoking
Cheers Phidom, makes sense,
So I need new Universal Suppressor, which I can buy off this site, but is is it easy to get a hold of those spade terminals? I’m not sure whether I need them with the plastic clip attached as the old (melted) one.
I have opened up the plastic casing for the electric where the cable terminals are junctioned into the machine, they seem well melted, what is this called – to help locate replacement?
If it is a broken Universal Suppressor could this have caused further damage to the live cable running into the electrical motor that sits on TOP of the drum, as the wiring terminals look a bit charred there as well.
again thanks for your help, sorry for any inconvenience!
Re: Indesit WDG1295 W – has been smoking
thanks for the advice so far….
but, after trying to see if the motor was working as the copper did not appear to be burnt, I put the machine on the 17 delicate spin mode and the drum span fine.
I then put it on No. 4 wash mode where, after a couple of minutes (as the water would be heating I presume) the smoke appeared again. After turning everything off and removing the back found that the smoke had been coming from the wiring from the inside top left. At the socket where the electric enters the machine on the inside of this the brown (live) wire has a small plug going into the socket which is melted and burnt.
Anyone help please with the cause and solution?
