Re: Smeg SUk62MFX Oven
There are re-cycling centres around most parts of the country these days. Many local appliance businesses used to re-furbish/re-condition and re-cycle as well. Regretably the latter options have disappeared with the rise of cheap budget machines.
The problem you’ve got is volume. SMEG is just a tad above niche market sales in the UK, so there simply aren’t many about. Bit like owning a Ferrari – great when it’s working, but no cheap options.

Re: Smeg DWI614 Error Code E8
If we start from the basics, the diverter valve switches the flow of water between the top and bottom rotors, thus allowing the machine to fill with less water. E8 means that the machine thinks that this motorised valve unit is out of circuit. This can be motor failure, broken wiring or a switching problem on the pcb. If only one basket is getting cleaned, it’s a sure sign.
E5 is no fill detected in the time allowed. These machine are particularly prone to sludging problems, which can affect the water level control system. If there is water coming into the machine, this is especially true. If there is no water coming into the machine, the inlet valve or water supply may be at fault; again wiring or pcb issues may be to blame or possibly the water level pressure switch.
Finally, these machines are particularly susceptible to corruption issues with the PCB. Various “suprise” factors can be involved – the mains suppressor is particularly prone to breaking down and causing spurious errors and the soap dispenser causes all sorts of odd faults.
I’m afraid that there is no “obvious” answer to your problem.

Timer unit is p/no 816290347. spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk for prices and ordering.
Brace yourself – it won’t be cheap and there will be little chance of an alternative component.

Re: DIPLOMAT DISHWASHER ADP8322 fills and stops – 3 beeps
The beeps can match the flashing start lamp – 3 suggests a heater circuit failure. Buirnt-out wiring at heater connector common, dead heater or safety stat and possible failure on PCB. Had one recently with wiring failure in door pivot point.
It’s a Whirlpool – all code info is available in Known Error Codes Thread and teh UKW Fault Code Guide book.

Re: GW508k does not start filling
Lid switch is a reed switch under the deck operated by a magnet in the lid itself. Pump not in circuit will stop the machine filling by breaking the neutral circuit – why fill if you can’t empty and know it?
Sounds like you need a test meter…..

Re: Delonghi DFS901SS Range Cooker Oven Switch
Probably a reasonable price given that you are getting a replacement wiring loom with it. You might like to ask spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk for a quote just to check.
