Re: General Electric PCG23MIMHFBB

Hi Bryan,

Sorry to bother you again, but given that this is a pretty expensive part, can you say on a scale of 1 to 10 how sure you are that this is the fault? Not that I’m going to hold you responsible if it doesn’t work. Also, when I removed the back cover I found a square, yellow capacitor with a ring connector not attached to anything. Am I right in assuming that this goes to earth and was held in place by one of the cover screws I removed? Thanks v much for your help.

Re: General Electric PCG23MIMHFBB

Hi Bryan,

Update from QER. They’ve identified a variable output from a couple of pins on one connector and think this may be the fault. However, if it is, they say they cannot repair it. Any idea where I can get a reasonably priced replacement, as I notice that they cost a fortune from the likes of Connect? Thanks v much for your help so far.

Cheers, Dez

Hi Bryan,

QER have tested the main board but not found a fault. Can you pls suggest other possible areas for me to check?

Difficulty in rotation was caused by dirt on front drum bearing surface. Cleaned off with silicone and jobs a good un.

The teardrop had worn down but the shaft was fine, so no need to replace.

Re: Bosch WTA4007GB/04 belt replacement

Hi Martin,

Problem is getting the belt around the motor spindle. The motor spindle projects rearwards through the heater chamber, so even with the belt slipped onto the drum it would not be possible to get it onto the spindle.

Re: Bosch WTA4007GB/04 belt replacement

Hi Martin,

So is there a better method than the one I adopted?

Re: Bosch WTA4007GB/04 belt replacement

Actually I think that would have worked on this one, but sadly didn’t spot the possibility till too late. Thanks Any, I’ll try that next time.

Re: washer ,drum spins when it agatates

Hi,

Do you mean the drum spins when it should be agitating? The reason I ask is because spinning and agitating simultaneously is a bit like running and walking simultaneously – impossible. Anyway, if it is spinning when it should be agitating I’d suspect a speed control issue. Before acting on any of this, unplug the machine from the mains. Try checking continuity across the tacho and security of tacho wiring at both ends. Examine the PCB for any signs of damage, burn outs etc. I had a similar problem recently and it turned out to be a PCB fault, repaired by QER.
