Thanks Dave,
Ended up stripping out and splitting the motor and pump. Found a piece of glass had wedged itself in the impeller – removed that, reassembled and ran it. it seems to work great. But…

Problem now is that it appears to be stuck on the program, it just continues and never ends. I can stop it and drain it down by opening the door and pressing the start button and holding done for a couple of seconds. So far I’ve only tried it on the ECO program. Also tried the fault identification test above but nothing came up. Heating and pumping water fine.

Is there a full reset for this machine? If so do you have the sequence? Or could this e something else?

Re: Wirlpool ADG 7470 – not heating water

Buy that man cigar!
Not sure if its solved the issue – and cannot believe that I missed it, but the bar at its base was totally disconnected! Just reconnected and already the washer sounds like it once did.
I think you may well have resolved this issue – I’ll let you know.

Thanks Tallpaul

Re: Wirlpool ADG 7470 – not heating water

An update to this issue.

The water is heating up but not to the required temperature. I say this because the dishes are not always clean and for some reason or another the dishwasher tablet does not drop out of the container – we have taken to dropping this into the bottom of the dishwasher. So I suspect the thermostat is at fault. I’ll change this but also want to change the heater element. Can you point me in the direction for these parts please?

Re: Wirlpool ADG 7470 – not heating water

Dave,

I’ve just tried the quick 30 min Eco-wash – I did put a tablet in to see if it would dissolve. At first I did think it was heating the water – I opened the door to check after 15 mins. At the end of the cycle the dryer was working but the tablet was undissolved which I can only assume means that the water hadn’t heated which fits in with what’s happening on the longer wash cycles.

It may be that the water is heating a little but not up to the required temperature. Could this be a thermostat fault?

Wirlpool ADG 7470 – Error code 3

As an update to this post, I changed the heating element – purchased from the UK W/Goods on-line shop for £58.04 + £11.41 PP, which did the trick.

As a point of interest the new heater – which took no more than an hour to fit including getting the integrated dishwasher unit out and back in again, has considerably shortened the dishwasher time on the usual setting. My guess is that it had been failing for some time.

Re: Neff Oven – no heat

Ok so I’ve changed the PTC sensor – still no heat but everything, as before, is working normally including the fan. Error code 444 on start up – anyone know how to reset this?

Re: Neff Oven – no heat

Hi Martin

Mine hasn’t got a block like the one shown in the photograph, it’s connected to a simple wiring block. It’s only two wires so I can’t see that it would make much difference. Unless I’m missing something?

Re: Neff Oven – no heat

Dave

Found one on your website that refers to my model number. The picture shows a white block on the end – I’m assuming I can cut that off as my has a simple connection block at the back?

Re: Neff Oven – no heat

Dave
I’ve tested all 4 elements and they’re all fine. I whipped out the thermostat which sits inside a tube in the oven. I’ve tried my meter across it and I get continuity but don’t seem to be able to get any kind of consistent resistance reading. I think it may be faulty. The circuit boards all appear fine nothing loose or burned.

The part number from the NEFF website is 187586
The E-Nr number is B1691N0GB

Do you have one of these?

Re: Neff Oven – no heat

Now that’s Useful.

Thanks Dave

Re: Neff Oven – no heat

Thanks Dave

Time to take a proper look and test the elements, although, as you say its unlikely they both went at the same time. I’ll check the the pcb too.

Thanks for your help.

Re: Neff Oven – no heat

HI Dave,

Yes, all of the controls appear to be working normally including the graduated temperature indicator – although obviously it remains at the bottom of the scale.

thanks done and working again.

Re: smeg DW1710E Dishwasher wont start

Ok everything tested and back together – `i’m convinced now that it must be the pcb. well the m/c has served us well, guess its time to wave goodbye and source a new one. Question is what do we go for? 😕

Re: smeg DW1710E Dishwasher wont start

Update: reminded myself of some of the more common problems associated with dishwashers from somewhere else on the site. So far I’ve tested the motor, heater element, and anything else I could find (the machine is disconnected from main), also checked continuity on every part of the harness checking for breaks below the door, all switches ok. I’ve got the pcb out had had a good look – can’t see any dry joints or obvious signs of overheating.

Has anyone come across a fault like this? Its looking more like the pcb which is around £145 – its odd that the program indicator lights are still on but not flashing.

Any advice as to where to go next would be appreciated.
