Re: ZDT41 Failing to heat up…

Thanks for the reply, I’ve opened it to check mid cycle and immediately after and water is cold/no steam etc.

How do I go about testing the heater etc?

Is there a beginners guide anywhere you know of?

Re: ZDT41 Failing to heat up…

Having done a search I cannot even find a reference to this model either in the forum or the spare parts section.

me? id cut my losses and buy a proper machine.. like a bosch or something of that caliber

Thanks for your help with this.

Was just looking at a Bosch, the WAA28165 – looks like i can pick up it for just under £300. do you have any knowledge of this model?

Thanks, i’ve just found this:

F10: No full and empty signal
• Check the efficiency of J3 connector contacts on the card
• Check pressure switch status checking J3 wiring connector pins:
– 2-4 ohm continuity – tub empty
– 2-3 ohm continuity – full tub
– 2-1 ohm continuity – tub overfilled, at least halfway up door glass
• Check wiring of connector J3/Pressure switch
• Replace Pressure Switch
• Replace Card.

As its the second time the machine has packed up within the last couple of months and its over three years old now so thinking of cutting my losses to be honest, but before i do what would the cost of parts be? I’m really useless with electronics so its a bit daunting.

Thanks

Re: Ariston A1635 Error #5

Just wondering, before i begin is it safe to lay the washer flat on its back? or is this a bit of a no no? only the kitchen is a bit cramped for space so this would make it easier to work on?

Thanks, i’ll have another bash at it tomorrow – i’ll stick a couple of towels in that should hopefully draw out a fair bit of the water and then as you say cover the innards, do you have any idea how i remove clips which are connecting the sump to the drum? and can they be reused?

[N20Y1D]

I did the thing with the outlet pipe earlier and although some water drained out the water in the drum remained.

Thanks for your help with this its really appreciated.

Re: Ariston A1635 Error #5

I’ve had a poke around inside the sump and cannot seem to feel any blockage.

So it looks like my next step is to either call an engineer or remove the sump, im worried that by attempting to remove the sump i’ll do more harm than good to the machine, due to the metal clips connecting the sump to the drum and the filter pump, is there an easy way to remove these as I’m worried about the remaining water inside spewing out all over the insides the moment the sump is released from the drum…..
😕

Re: Ariston A1635 Error #5

Thanks for the info, is there an idiots guide to checking the sump hose for blockages?

Re: Ariston A1635 Error #5

Update:

have done the turning the machine off – put the dial on the red spot – turn the machine on – wait for it to blink and reset – a couple of times and this seemed to eventually drain the water, then ran the machine on a very hot wash and have now ended up back at square one.

How do i check to see if there is a blockage between the drum and the filter?

or does anyone have any other ideas on what the problem could be?
