Re: Bosch upright freezer running continuously

Thanks very much trikdik.
As I can’t access where the present fuse is located, (it’s round the back) will it bo OK to stick it into the fins at the front?

Re: Bosch upright freezer running continuously

The thermal fuse is not listed in the exploded drawings & parts list online.

Re: Bosch upright freezer running continuously

Well I shorted out the 2 black wires, assuming these were for the thermal fuse.
The ice that had built up from the last defrost has gone and I’m just keeping my eye on it for now.

Re: Bosch upright freezer running continuously

I couldn’t see the thermal fuse pushed into the fins but I made a note of the plugs that are connected into the upper left section of the evaporator.

There are four plugs, first is white with 2 black wires and they are open circuit.
Second is gey plug with 2 white wires reading 285 ohms.
Third is Black with 2 white wires reading 2.5k ohms
Fourth is red with a grey & purple wire reding 49k ohms.

@helo_75, the bloke is trying to help me, constructive info would be welcome

Re: Bosch upright freezer running continuously

I’ve just peered into the evaoporator and it’s completely iced up. I’m goung to deforst it & then check the thermal fuse.
Actually I only sprayed water into it because that’s what the last Bosch engineer did!
Thanks for the advice Bosch engineer.

Re: Bosch upright freezer running continuously

Thanks Bosch-engineer.
I will give it another defrost. Actually last time I took the evaoporator cover off and sprayed hot water in it for quite a long time.

The fan is running when I close the door at the moment.

One thing is bothering me though, it’s a few years old now and when it was new the compressor just used to run for a few minutes at time to maintain the temp. & didn’t need a defrost until it was about 3 years old & now the derost routine is only months between each one.

Should I cut my losses and get a new one?

Re: Zanussi FJ1296 Drum bearing

Cheers Dave,

I came across another posting in the forum where you helped someone with exactly the same problem.

Looks like its going to be character building!

Will I need to get hold of a bearing puller to get the bearings off the spider?

Thanks.

Re: Bosch SMS 903 Dishwasher not using salt

Thanks Martin. Much appreciated.

Yes the hose is blue. I will be emailing Dave.

Some outfit said I could only buy the whole container assembly and needed all the exact model nos. which of course I don’t have.

Having done a bit of research on the net I have determined that it is a SMS6032 series.

Thanks again.

Re: Bosch SMS 903 Dishwasher not using salt

There’s absolutley no ID anywhere on the thing.

Anyway following Penguin’s hint I found that the solenoid on the bottom of the salt/softener container is open circuit.

I’ve now got to try and get a replacement.
