Re: Hotpoint WMA58 Tripping Out

Thanks again Martin.
Please excuse my lack of experience in repairing these things, but on this machine only the top panel comes off and a small panel at the lower rear.
How do you gain acess to see where the possible short is (hence my suggestion of literally waggling the harness).
As you said, it’s a common fault. Is there a common area for the short to occur?

Re: Hotpoint WMA58 Tripping Out

Thanks for that Martin.
I must admit, I was thinking of dropping the machine on it’s other side to see if I had dislodged something and could “lodge” it back.
I am currently at work. Where do I need to look for the possible short?
Is it a case of just grabbing the harness and moving it around to free it up?
