Re: Miele Novotronic T 7634 dead.
I removed the spade connectors and shorted across them, mmmm ???
Probable best to check it with a test meter/multimeter.
And to continue testing the appliance from the plug all the way following the circuit through, POWER OFF please NO LIVE TESTING.Re: Miele W460 sticks on 20 minutes
Would advise that you go back and check that you have not dislodged wiring to heater NTC etc beside pressure vessel. I take it you disconnected the wiring to the heater when you tested it for continuity etc? Perhaps you did’nt connect them back up again, just a thought.
Re: miele g2870 salt reservoir
I’d try filling 1kg of salt in first, be aware that salt empty warning light normally will not go out till end of cycle after its been refilled.
Re: New World Cooker 60ECHDGM
Best to post the product code of any GDHA appliance as there are a few variants, just to be certain.
Regulator is listed as 082590800 (MP V01SV) which is the one you mention, blue common type regulator used on many Stoves/Belling/New World products.. see hereRe: Miele W736 Electronic Washing Machine Error Code Symbol
Perhaps there is a fault on the float that is activating the switch. Could be plug damaged, slight short circuit perhaps, loom/cable damaged etc, the float may be warped etc causing this. I have previously seen polystyrene float discs become warped/damaged causing problem described.
The appliance will normally throw up an error code F1,F2, to F7,F8 etc, some other faults are not shown to consumer (all you will see is — to denote a fault) they then will only be viewable to an Engineer entering into the service mode/ diagostics of the appliance.
Things to check are pressure vessel been clogged up with gunge, motorized water valve not going to correct position, a short circuit to earth of heater or motor, or in some of the snazzy Mieles with the lamp in door seal, it can become loose & the locating switch of lamp is not recognising that a lamp is in place so it shuts down.Re: Some advice from the Engineers please
Not sure that certificates are what you need.
To be honest you mentioned picking up tricks of the trade and i’d think that good habits you pick up with going out with another engineer would be of more value than weeks in the classroom.
Not sure you need any formal qualification though.
Being trained up on semi-commercial Miele equiptment would be a good basis to start though if this is being offered i’d take the opportunity. I’ve done courses with Miele years ago and if you know how to work on there product any other you come in contact with are handy enough to grasp.
The testing for faults is important but its the testing that the product is safe for the customer to use after you have been with it that is the most important.Re: beko dsfn1530b lights up but not working, help!.
door interlock perhaps, failing that on/off switch or p.c.b
Re: miele w562 enquiry
Sounds like its not found its position. After rinse in should be in a position and not move until another wash needs water intake. If you look down from above at it you will see numbers 1-2-3 etc, it should move to a position determined by the programme selected to fill watercompartment. If it doesn’t get the position correctly then theres no feedback of where it is and I suppose it will continue running until it gets the position.
There could be plastic gears broken or worn in the little gearbox meaning its not moving to position.Re: leisure gas cooker GRB6GUR top oven fault
If you have lost “convenience” with Leisure because your oven doesn’t work properly report it as faulty and have one of their engineers check it for you under warranty.
Re: Beko DW600 integrated dishwasher.
Would advise you to get Beko out to look at it, its got a 2 year warranty I think seeing that its an integrated product.
Re: Zanussi ZOD685X fan oven probs.
Have got ones with faulty relay on board which was obselete when I looked for a price.
Also remember one doing it that had a fault down to earth on another element, so advise to megger the elements for an earth fault first.
Can be dangerous if left in that stage because element can come on if not selected, so advise customer to switch off at wall switch.Re: Rangemaster SXS Fridge-Freezer, challenging fault!!?

Do you think a fan has failed in the Freezer or could these number of problems be more symptomatic of another problem?
Do YOU hear the fan running, it may be indeed faulty. Have you tried totally defrosting it as fan may be blocked by ice build up for instance. Defrost it for 48 hours and see if it works o.k then, report back then.
Re: Hotpoint ctd80 tripping electrics
Have you tested it with a megger? Likely theres a short to earth on some of the components. Taping of wiring in a tumble dryer especially near the heater would be prone to the tape melting i’d think, perhaps you need to check the loom again too.
Re: AEG error C6
Heater or motor earth leakage can cause these erroneous faults, as does dust & condensation on the circuit board. Double check cabling to pressure switches & pressure vessel, hose pipe also.
Re: Beko DE2542 FS
No circuit diaagrams/wiring diagrams can be provided to the general public i’m afraid, see Forum Rules.
Its likely there is a short circuit somewhere. If you worked as an engineer it should be no problem for you to get out a multimeter and do some testing and find the actual fault that is causing this tripping. Power off of course when testing.
