Re: SMEG DWF64.1.55 Not filling.

I have checked the voltage to the aquastop…only 59 volts. I checked the cut off switch and although I found no fault when I reassembled the voltage to the aquastop was 250 volts and the aquastop works.
The machine now fills with water but does not run.
Can anybody please advise me on my next steps?
Jon.

Re: Whirlpool ADG720 WH2 stuck during cycle

Checked operating stat and appears ok: clicks when heated gently and goes short; on cooling reverts to open cct. I do not understand how this item could trip the overheat stat; I would have thought that if that is tripping it must either be too hot or the stat is actually faulty. Having said that I do not have a cct diagram and therefore do not know how things are interconnected. Do the overheat stats go u/s and if so how do you check them? At what temps do these stats trip/go open? Sorry to bother you with all these questions but I need to get to the bottom of this! 😕 Jon.

Thanks for that. I will operate tomorrow and let you know. Fantastic service by the way, Jon.

Re: Whirlpool ADG720 WH2 stuck during cycle

Thank you for your reply. I inherited this machine from my mother in law in a faulty state (not heating up) and, having studied UKW, stripped the
front panel and con checked all the wiring to the front panel. I then found the tripped protection device and reset it. All appeared well and I then installed the machine. It worked fine for a month or so and then (guess what!) it tripped again. What exactly does this trip protect and if (as appears likely) it is a thermostat problem, how many are there and where are they? Thanks again, Jon .

Re: Whirlpool ADG720 WH2 stuck during cycle

Dave, my ADG720 is suffering from nuisance tripping of the heater protection thermostat (little red button at base of heater element). Is the element at fault or something else? Thank you in anticipation, Jon Weller.
