Re: Hotpoint wd63 drying function
Cheers Phil, I’ll take a look later of over the weekend. Hopefully it’s just the wires as I don’t have a test meter handy to check the element. I’ll visually check the element anyway as we’ve fairly hard water here so I’m actually surprised it hasn’t given hassle before this.
Re: Hotpoint wd63 drying function
Sorry to drag this up but I’m having the exact same problem with this washer/dryer. Dryer was fine for years but now it’s just a washer, the dryer function doesn’t dry anymore, just spins and spins. Connections are all fine, it hasn’t been moved but I checked them anyway.
From reading the previous posts one possibility is that there’s an issue with wires breaking around the heater box and fan motor, it sounds like a possibility as it tripped the fuse about a week or so before it stopped working. How easy is that to spot, are the wires outside the box or will I have to check inside the box itself ? And if I do find broken wires can I just stick ’em back together again ?
It’s over 6 years old at this stage, should I just send it to the great resting place in the sky ?
