I’ve since found the motor windings are open circuitThere is a TOC wired in series on those windings.
You know, I did wonder if they had taken a leaf out of Whirlpools book regarding a TOC on the motor windings, either way it’s a new motor right ?
Re: Zanussi ZWD12270W motor issue
Thanks Cornwell40 ! I will certainly err on the side of caution regarding the programmer 🙂
Thanks again for the part numberRedflame
Re: help-bosch fault
You could also check the pressure system is completely clear & not scaled up. 😛

“Dunno? Bit odd that TBH but also the new motor could possibly have a twisted frame and therefore stiff to turn? It runs for a while then the TOC trips as it overheats maybe?”
It baffled me for a bit but had the very same problem with a mates DW – Its always a friends or family members machine that goes tits up !!! 👿Re: Electrolux EKM6047XN Grill Issue !!!
Yeah…
…tried that but all I can see is the top of the grill fan & no grill (Its a fast grill type!)
No access from back, top or from the sides. 😯
Is there any chance someone would be kind enough to email me with a copy of an exploded diagram? 😳
Re: Hotpoint WD860P F13 fault

Re: Masterparts parts search frustration!
I use Masterpart ONLY when I can’t get the item from Qualtex then I might use Europart – I’ve gotta be honest I’ve just got off the phone from Angela at Qualtex & I found her very friendly & helpfull 😛 Unlike Masterpart that lets be honest don’t seem to care whether they can help you or not ! – 😛 It’s gonna be QUALTEX all the way from now on ! 😛

Hiyas,
I can’t comment on the original post as I’ve heard absolutely nothing about it.
I can however reply to this post.We don’t install consumer units, electricians do.
true but you are expected to spot a faulty one, and upgrade customer from old fuse wire to consumer unit
We don’t add to existing circuits, electricians do.
We don’t chase wiring to repair it, electricians do.
true but in most cases its white goods engineers who are sent out 1st to most hec jobs, un-aware what the job may involve
We don’t do rewires, electricians do.We can change the fuse wire in a fuse in a consumer unit.
We can reset the rcd or mcb.
We can change a light switch, light fitting or a socket.
We can change transformers on low voltage lighting.Hardly makes us electricians does it? very true …..
thats my point appliance engineers dont really have the mind-set to do home wiring and the safety issues that have to be considered.. ie locking of consumer unit etc.. its ok if thats all your doing all day.but appliance engineers probally doing 7-10 appliance jobs per day , then hec job finds it way on to diary , appliance engineer maybe have had a hard day arrives at hec job 4pm on auto pilot.. home electrics whole different set on rules/safety issues..please dont think im having a dig at you bryan ..cos im not , i have worked for b/g and done engineer developement ..been privy to info that engineers dont normaly hear…also in touch with ex collegues who have various position within b/g..
i just thought this was worth a mention as its a big company trying to offer all to everybody , forcing engineers into jobs that they may not have the experience to carry out…
i think the problem lies with how experienced the engineer is in assessing what the problem is and whether job needs to be refered to one of the fully qualified electricans ….( customer always were a bit miffed when i advised them that i would need to call in a more experienced electrician if i couldnt find/trace problem)
once again im not having a dig bryan .

Ally – Thats what I wanted to put across but obviously came out all wrong…? 😳

I’m not going to get into an arguement over this.What I posted is what is asked of an ESD engineer.
I’ve been with BG over 4 years and have never been asked to do any of the work that you stated we did, and I’ve worked for 3 different managers and 4 different FSMs in 2 different patches.
No one here has claimed to be a fully qualified electrician after a 5 day course.
As a by the way, I served my time in 1972 to 1977, then immediately gave the trade up as the money was rubbish. That was a 4 year apprenticeship and a 1 year improver.
Brian 😀Whos arguing ? Just getting my point of view over.
I worked for them for 4 1/2 years & enjoyed my time there but wanted more. Glad you still enjoy working for them. Best of luck.
