He hasn’t come back to let us know. He’s got an email on his Profile, drop him a line and let us know perhaps?

Assuming that your code is correct, you have a rotor position error. This one’s a headbanger. Most likey culprit is duff wiring – check contacts to position sensor and edge connector for cleanliness, corrosion and continuity. Or its the Hall sensor. Or the control board itself.
Power off if doing this yourself.

Penguin45.Re: Hotpoint slimline DW doesn’t heat
The solution to this problem is very simple – percussive maintenance. At the bottom of the fill matrix is a large brown resin chamber. Over the years, this slowly solidifies and the water can’t run through it any more. Given that the fill is a metered dose from the fill tank on the back of the machine, it has about 3 minutes to fill – this leads to underfilling and insufficient water being circulated to operate the pressure switch on the heater.
So what you do is – beat the chamber. Gently, persistently with a soft handled screwdriver handle. Possibly for a long time. When the gel starts to behave like a sand picture, you’ve solved it.
Sounds mad, but it works. Don’t tap too hard, or you’ll crack the chamber.
Good luck,

Re: Help on old Zanussi washer
Er, I seem to recall a certain someone complaining about duff new pump motors not so very long ago…….
I personally have about 1 in 25 Askolls faulty. I think Mikes problem is going to be to get a replacement motor to the US.

It’s basically the same as any modern Zanussi – if anything it’s easier as the cabinet front comes off.

Re: SMEG DWI614
Um, I didn’t even bother checking on Connect……….. I knew that the Parts Sleuth would bound into action, ready to serve the punter and maximise the margin of the independent. 😀
You quite sure you don’t put the undies outside the trousers?

It works both ways – I didn’t fill in any forms at all and received an email saying that I had an account!
I have been impressed with them to date, I have to say.
