    Re: Siemens Hydro sensor, usual problem, no idea what to do

    No one with any more ideas??

    I guess you are all sick of the same old “no hot water in my bosch” question, without people using the search facility.

    Sick of washing stuff up by hand, and don’t have a spare £400 lying around for a new machine, so any more advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Re: Siemens Hydro Sensor, Help to locate water heating eleme

    Help still required to correctly locate the water heater, wife is well and truly sick of doing the pots by hand, so i really need to sort this out soon, or i will be sleeping in the spare room :cry:.

    I have take some more close up photos with some numbers and letters on to try and help with the identification. Which numbers is the water heater, and which wires to i need to put the test meter across. If the correct wires are not shown colors and location would be fine.


    Once located and tested, i hope to find it faulty, as i don’t know what else it can be, checked and cleaned everything else. So i will hopefully need a new one, can anyone suggest a good place to get one mail order??

    Thanks again

    We eventually got the engineer out again yesterday, and he replaced a whole panel of sensors this time. Now it seems to be working (-20 and 3 degrees) – touch wood!
    Cheers

    was this a panel of sensors in just the fridge? I am guessing the part replaced was the defrost heater “complete” containing a new sensor and thermal fuse. Mentioned by r600a earlier in the thread

    I’m still unsure how a fault in the fridge can effect the freezer when this model is ment to have twin chillers, ie totally independant

    Was your freezer not maintaining temp as well as the fridge.

    Re: Samsung SR-S2028CVW side by side fridge freezer failing

    Hi,

    I have an identical fridge/freezer with identical symptoms.

    Strange thing is it was working perfectly till last week, we went on holiday, there was a power cut while we were away when next doors builders cut thru a power cable. The consumer unit tripped and the freezer switched off. We returned 10 days latter, to a completly de-frosted freezer and fridge.
    We cleaned it out (what a stinking mess it was) filled it with bread and switched it back on. The compressor kicks in and it starts to chill the temps on the front panel were set to 3 deg and -23 for the freezer, the fridge got down to 3 but the freezer only went to -18 over night, the stuff inside was frozen. During the next day, lots of condensation appeared on the underside of the glass shelves in the fridge and the stuff in the freezer starts to defrost, even though the display still shows 3 and -18, a thermometer in a cup of water (left in there for 6 hours) shows it to be about +8 and another one just placed in the freezer reads +2.

    Switched it of, waited 2 mins and then back on again and the readings on the front panel confirm the readings (more or less) from the two thermometers +10 and +4 for the freezer, the compressor has started up again and i hope its cooling once more.

    Any suggestions, how do i confirm the problem, why would a power cut break it??

    Quite handy with the tools so with the correct parts is it a job i could do myself??

    Could this be the same problems as shown on the recent BBC watchdog program, i know they were the RS21 models but they look similar

    Mines 5 years old know so i don’t expect they would mend it for free anyway

    Thanks

    Phil
