Re: Candy DFi85s Dishwasher- Mind of it’s own
I suspect you’re right with the pcb. I’m 99{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} certain there’s a technical bulletin about this, but I’m damned if I can find it.
Anyway, the motor is switched by a relay on the pcb. They can and do go intermittent. The correct repair would be to replace the pcb – if you are handy with a soldering iron, there’s no reason you shouldn’t get a relay from Radio Spares or the like and try it. Cheap option.
Might just be worth checking how hot the motor gets when it cuts out as there is a TOC embedded in the motor windings. If it overheats, it shuts down.
Power off if you intend to investigate this yourself.

Re: Whirlpool ADG 7440 continuous warning light flash rinse
You might get away with giving the Water Indicator a good scrub out with very hot water and and old toothbrush – you can usually see the coagulated fatty deposits through the black grid.
The NTC or temperature device there’s no way round. They are particularly touchy beasts and either work or don’t – no half measures I’m afraid.

Re: Whirlpool DWF416 8 flash error code?
8 flashes is still the Water Indicator not working properly.
Remove the filters, look at the 3 o’clock position in the sump. There’s a black grid, which is probably choked with fatty deposits. Very hot water and a good scrubbing with an old toothbrush may clear it. If it’s particularly bad, you may need to remove the unit for a proper clean. It’s a twist-fit from underneath. Power off if you have to go that route.
Also possible that the microswitch has failed, in which case you’ll need THIS.

Re: Smeg stx1 stopping mid-cycle, no error showing
If you thought corruption issues were ripe in South America, SMEG makes them look like amateurs…. Pretty sure I refered you to THIS ARTICLE last time – same precepts apply. Suppressor, dispenser (Yes, I know) are always the principle culprits, or the pcb itself.

Fan motor, possibly. Drag it out and get the top of to listen properly. Don’t stick your fingers in…..

Re: Converting old Zanussi part numbers to new Electrolux
Naah – that’s the old AEG numbers. You had to put 645 after them as well. 5006 used to work for the Zanussi ones.

Just a Zanussi in a dress. The German factory has now gone, production could be from anywhere. They’re just trading on the name. People will twig in the end – the AEG name will be gone in a few years time.

Re: Siemens IQ-300 WT36V398GB dryer – country of manufacture
Well, it looks like a proper BSH job rather than a buy-in, so that’ll be Germany, Spain or Poland.

Re: Whirlpool ADG 7440 continuous warning light flash rinse
Continuous flashing is the temperature sensor failure. This is the probe sticking up through the floor of the sump, next to the Water Indicator which you changed.
It’s HERE if you wish to proceed with the repair. Be very careful – do not get any part of it wet whilst changing it.
Power off, of course.

Re: Firenzi dishwasher DW930/1
Holding down the button cancels the programme and runs the drain pump for two minutes. You can then re-set the programme and try again.
When it faults, the start LED will flash in a pattern – ie – 1-2-3-4-pause-repeat. This is an error code, which we can interpret for you.

Re: Indesit cfridge freezer ontrol card
Your model number is incomplete. There are four versions of this appliance.
If you want at least a part number, we’d need the full model number, serial number and commercial code as there are several variations of pcb.
Spares can always be purchased direct from The Indesit Company. You just won’t like it very much.
