    Re: CDA CW494 BEEPING SNAG

    To put this one to bed, it is fixed! It would seem that your pointer was correct, Bryan. The ‘secondary’ filter (coloured black) which incorporates a sensor telling the system when it has emptied, was caked in grease. By using boiling hot water from the kettle, some washing up liquid and a washing-up brush, I gave it a good clean. Between kettle-fulls, I closed the door and allowed the washer to pump out the grease-laden water before attacking with another lot.

    Decided to go for the clean in-situ option as didn’t want to destroy the water-tight integrity of the basin, and it seemed to be effective enough.

    Since then, 3 or 4 full loads, no problems and no new PCB.

    VMT for the grease-pointer, Bryan.

    Bryan,

    VMT, having cleaned the ‘main’ filter (easily accesible one) it was quite grease-infested. Since posting, I have read elsewhere on the site that the second (black) filter has a water level sensor; and that this filter is accesible from underneath with a twist fit/removal. Do you think removal and cleaning of this will/may solve the problem? PCB replacement appears expensive! Intend to have a look (power off!)
