    Re: Spin stops very quickly – Bosch WVT1260GB

    Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it was run again before I got to look at it, the main drive motor took out the house RCD and an electrical burning smell filled the room it was in… Fortunately the pump still operated OK. So we bit the bullet and replaced it… The internal drum felt very loose front-to-back so I’m wondering if the bearing or an attachment had failed.

    OK thanks Martin. I will take it apart and see if there is anything obvious… Don’t suppose there are any wiring or circuit diagrams out in the wild?

    Thanks for the suggestion. I have pressed the very small red button on the stat closest to the heater. It shows s/c on my meter. No change I’m afraid…

    Took the control board out to see if there was anything obvious, which there wasn’t… Put it all back together again – and the dryer now works :rolls: Just hoping it was a loose connector and not an intermittent fault on the board 😕 Thanks for the pointers.

    ….found the relays and removed/checked/cleaned them all. Two of them are not getting 12V to the coils – the voltage drive to the transistor array to activate those relays is also missing at the edge connector to the rear of the board. That looks like a main control board issue – unless the voltage is inhibited by air-flow or water level sensors or anything which need the case removing to access ? Help !!

    …and there was I hoping it was something a bit more straightforward !! Is it a relay switch – or via a triac or similar – do you know ? And are spare cct boards available ?

    Thanks Martin. Just checked the water inlet valve and there’s water flowing through the outlet pipe and through the little plastic container fixed to the rear panel and on to the condensing part.

    I am measuring 230V at all the sensor terminals and at both heater element terminals against chassis, but nothing between the heater terminals. Now I’m really confused… How does the heater pick up its neutral return ?
