Re: Ariston 11600WD

Its pumping out fine first thing i checked, gave the machine a good functional test, iv not checked for the fill rate of valve but im assuming that this would have to let enough water in to activate fill level1 and then switch of dryer as fault?

i sat and watched the dryer op for about 10mins, no sighs of filling with water?would this be sufficiant to rule out valve problem?

Re: Conversion of intergrated to freestanding.

Thanks for reply,its an agent we do regular work for so going the extra mile with this one, they have already bought a machine from us a recondiitoned model, ariston washerdryer, now im sure iv seen this done before were the lid has been removed, obviously health and safety risk there, considering placing a light metal sheeting( i just happen to have lots of the stuff in my back yard!) with selftappers on top, its modifying the appliance but given it a little thought and cannot think of any safety problems there?

got the feeling its gona be a time killer this one.

Re: HOTPOINT WD61

Thanks Trever same diagram, iv checked again, the end multiplug is blue with black wires the last wire at very end says door on, for door interlock, 3rd and 4th wires are only very short as if they go to somewere else nearby (ie pressure switch???? although the wiring seems complete on this as per diagram), so iv definatly working with the correct multiplug, and again a red wire comes from hotvalve up through loom and reaches timer area and has good length on it, also same with blue wire from cold valve(this has a piggy back connection availble for another wire?) so everything else has gone on only these 4 wires left, iv done a wire count on pressure switch and is ok, also on dryer timer and is ok? as per diagram, well the diagram says black on wires from blue plug and they are but does not depict a change in colour to red and blue respectivly, and iv had the back off and checked they are definatly red to hot and blue to cold value.

the diagram in definatly incomplete if only for colour description, as its a simple matter of red and blue on valves?

now im using a new pressure switch as the machine was in bits and unfortualty left the pressure switch behind during removal of appliance, the original switch was larger than the new one im using so im gona take an educated guess that the origal pressure switch accomodates these 4 wires as they would stretch to this area comfortably although the timer interally switches the values on and off with the pressure switch configeration maybe this is some type of overide safety stop incase of timer failure? so as to cut off supply to values with over fill level? if this is the case im still going to struggle as to pressure switch placement of wiring, last time i has this bother i put 2 machines side by side as was easy peasy!

looks like harry the spiders won the day on this one guys!

can anyone send me a wd61 washing machine by email?

thanks for help simonb

Re: HOTPOINT WD61

Thanks Jim recieved and all going well until im left with 4 wires that dont seem to go anywere! 😯

looking at the diagram it seems a bit incomplete, i think harry’s got to this one, anyway im not sure if anyone will know:

hotvalue: red L wire
cold value: blue L wire

FIRST EDGE CONNECTOR CLOSEST TO FACIA=BLUE WITH BLACKWIRES(END WIRE IS TO DOOR INTERLOCK)

going from facia end:
3rd wire(ps12)
4th wire (ps11)

now ps12 on diagram connects to blue L wire
ps11 on diagram connects to RED L wire

the blue has a biggyback connector???

they all look like they should go onto something inbetween? on the diagram theres no intermediate connecting componant just wires straight to values?

help!!!!!!!! 😯

Re: hotpoint wd61

i did give the tube itself a good inspection as i know this is normally the culprit looking for a small hole or crud in the tube as you say, i took off the vessel and looked into the opening as it joins the pipe, so its had a good look over yes i see your point though its all to easy to miss something ill think for safetys sake id prefer to change both pipe and switch as the thought of it overfilling brings nighmares8O, not too sure about the pipe dropping too low? is it important for it not to drop below the vessel height? before it makes it way upto the switch? good to know for future reference if its important. simonb
