    Re: 1600474 Brushes Again

    Yeah, i’ve seen that problem, i’ve found that this is normally due to bad contact on spades where they are connected onto brush or also most times the sump hose is full of sh1t & puts extra pressure on the motor if its spinning a soggy load. I have found the problem you mention with a batch of brushes, obviously they are not built to withstand the temperatures created.

    I’m afraid that isn’t a model number, i’ve the parts software here on my laptop & every Miele dishwasher made in the last 20 years begins with “G”.

    Yeah as the other reply said its normally a faulty NTC that causes this, i’ve had a few do this & new NTC cured them. Check edge connections on pcb also.

    Re: miele washers & tumbles

    First of all don’t be put off by them, you can do it. They are exceptionally well engineered, made to last! On the dryers the small relay board behind facia fails. Build up of dust dirt etc on contacts of drum prevents automatic heating sensing. On washers i’ve replaced motors, drum bearings complete crosspiece, quite easy to do. Heaters also have been known to blow if damaged by coins etc, good thing is there are 2 heaters, you can disconnect faulty one until new one comes. You will probably find washing machines are two or three phase supply in hospitals, nursing homes etc. Heaters can be 400v or 230v watch out for this when ordering. Every machine has a circuit diagram inside to follow if someone hasn’t pinched it.

    Sounds like the unbalanced load scenario doesn’t it. The machine won’t go into spin but will keep trying to distribute the load.

    Had a few of these blow, anyone know whats the cause, i’ve always cleaned the armature & cleaned carbon dust off brush holders, i reckon its been shorting to earth possibly through dust? Anyone any other ideas on this?

    Sounds if the motor windings could be duff, presuming that you have checked motor conections on loom plug & there is no bad connections etc.

    Re: Creda hi speed grill dilema

    Cheaper one can be put in, from memory i think the enamel guard/bracket on the original does not fit the new one. Holes have to be made in roof of top oven for self tapping screws to mount it. I’ve found using a sharp bradawl & tap of hammer makes small holes & self tapping screws will then srew in . Saves a packet as one of these grill elements is £100 rrp while other is £40ish rrp..

    Re: Hotpoint dryer

    There are a few types, ome with single pole switch some with double. Should be in or around a tenner trade. Can get cheaper ones off RS if you look.Check the start pushbutton & door switch as well as i’ve had these fail often if filter isn’t cleaned regularly the contacts get fouled with dust & fluff.
