    Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!

    The icemaker in my S20BRWW20/A/G isn’t working. I’ve replaced the IR receiver optics (based on info I found in another forum) and that hasn’t helped. Then I found this thread. This thread seems to be more like the issue I have because the fault has come in slowly and worsened over time (it used to be that turning the icemaker off for a bit and then back on would restart it) so to me the idea of a component like a cap failing over time makes sense. This morning I have replaced the cap described as controlling the ice eject mechanism and this hasn’t helped either.

    Am I now looking at a control board replacement?

    The whirlpool spares web site is quoting £165.99 for these. Have they gone up? Do I also need the front board?

    Mine is a 858615215011, 110346027102.

    Thanks

    Nick

    I thought that there were only really two models – the s20 and the s25 I thought that the rest of the number was cosmetic (eg black/white/silver).

    I’m used to being wrong though – the full model number is S20B-RWW20-A/G.

    Thanks.

    Spot on Dave. Thanks. I hadn’t realised there was a locating bracket but it’s clearly visible if you peer in the hole! The really good news is that the heating element was the cause of the original problem and that fault is now cleared.

    Thanks to ukwhitegoods; my repair cost 15 quid, a phone call and a bit of petrol, rather than a callout charge!

    Re: Ariston AWD12 not entering Drain/Spin cycle

    Thanks for taking the time to reply.

    What bothers me is that only program 8 returns an error code. Other programs just fail to proceed. A small part of me clings on to some hope that the error code isn’t what stops the other programs from proceding but that it is something more trivial.

    The washing machine still works. You just have to manually move it on to the drain/spin cycle after it’s washed the clothes.
