Re: ADP 5966 trips electric

Thanks very much for the photo – thats really helpful!

Machine tripped again on Sun 6pm. Called local repair company on Monday morning and they where very good and looked at machine Monday pm.

Johns verdict:
Multi-meter check of all parts, found nothing. Pump working OK.
Ran machine (reset etc.) to then get F6 code.
Trialed and confirmed flow meter is issue – part of a large ‘tank’ on LHS of machine.
New part now ordered, John will be back to fit on Fri pm.

thanks again,

Re: ADP 5966 trips electric

Update:

1. Removed base cover (evidence of salt being left to evaporate and a dent), inspected all electrical connections nothing loose, ‘burnt’ or corroded.

2. During connections inspection, I knocked a black circular pressure (?) switch that contains a white disc (float?) that also seems to be a pressure switch. Black part was actually broken and aligns with dent in base cover.

3. Applied electrical tap to mend black circle holding the white disc securely. Attempted to rectify the dent.

4. Put back together.

5. Powered up and turned dial. All lights working correctly, no trip of RCD.

6. Run 2 empty and 1 full washes, still ok and I keep turning the dial whenever I get the chance, still ok – dishwasher still in the middle of kitchen.

Is it possible I have fixed the problem?
As you can tell I have no idea what the black circle switch is actually….
I am quite prepared to dig out multi meter and check electrical parts if its recommended.

thanks,
