SOLVED !!??!!
I probably shouldn’t post until I have mucking around with the machine but I think everything is sorted now and I’m doing the confirmation cycle as I write !! The problems were due to a combination of things. The continual cycling was due to the recycle function being activated (somehow my wife managed to activate this – we don’t have a manual either !) and the 00100100 code was due to siphoning which has probably been happening for weeks but I only found this out due to the recycling issue. Will post again if there are any further issues 🙂

Further investigation has proved to be inconclusive, machine will fill, wash and drain as per usual but the lid lockout switch only seems to work for the first 10 seconds of operation (i.e hold in, machine starts, agitator spins etc:, let out within ten seconds of pushing in, everything stops as it should… but if you hold in for more than 10 seconds and release everything keeps working ?). Also noticed that on end of a complete wash cycle the machine immediately began a new cycle by itself.
Very confusing…Re: Smartdrive 051 diagnostics
Thanks for the reply Penguin, I had a look today and the air hose to the level switch is all good and there were no leaks that I could find. The water level control sensor also seems to be working but after blowing and holding pressure til the water cut off, the drain pump kicked in shortly afterward which made no sense to me (wash cycle, not rinse). Is there also a sensor to stop potential overfilling (flood sensor?) that could cause something like this? After all the mucking about, the LEDs still flash 00000111 with power off… what is the significance of that ?
Cheers…
