Re: HOTPOINT AQUARIUS spare parts

I did post this in the wrong forum and lost my login, so I have started again.

I have a WF 320 standard Aquarius washer. I suspect I have a pcb problem as the diagnostic lights that are currently flashing indicate a fault I can’t have. The lights are flashing, top down, 1,2,3,4 with horizontal 5, saying I have an error, obviously and on/off flashing. They indicate a dryer fault but it doesn’t have a dryer 🙂 or I have mislaid it somewhere. It is an excellent machine and is still in very good condition, so I am loathe to buy a new one, for a simple repair, I hate our wasteful society. I lack all my technical kit and sparky tools these days, so a simple answer with minimal tools will be appreciated.
Many thanks
Steve

Since posting this I have removed the PCB and it appears that c17 capacitor may have or is in the process of blowing and upon inspection the reverse of the PCB has burnt around the area of the C4 capacitor, even closer inspection (with a magnifying glass, poor eyesight) shows d10 and r9 have also blown. New board required? Can you please let me know the price to replace it as I said the machine itself is in very good condition. Can you also give me a price for the bottom front panel, as when I removed it to check the filter, the plastic lugs fell apart.
