Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

The bizarre thing is that the plug for the black wires is keyed for the pressure switch, yet it can fit in that position in the pressure switch either way up! 😯 :clown:

Why can’t they make these plugs in such a way that they truly only fit one way? :lesson:

I suppose it’s because they don’t want Joe Public messing with the guts of their products and that only the experts should repair them.

I washed two dog beds as a test wash last night and 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} success!!

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

If I put that plug in properly, it works… I think I had it in upside down :boops:

100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} function is restored!! 😀 Thanks so much for your patience and hints, you’re a life saver (or at least have saved my washer from a fate worse than a fate worse than death).

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

If the processor was damaged, would it just stop the fast spin and yet let everything else work normally? Even the door interlock works as it should now. Looking at the board, is it possible that the Motor Speed Triac or Half Field Triac have been damaged, as I would have thought that these were more likely candidates?

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

I’ve tried that after my last post and after reprogramming it from a WMA 13 to a WMA 11. Same fault, a few turns back and forth but no spin. The bizarre thing is that with the ‘wrong’ wiring yesterday, the machine went into spin on Programme P no problem. Both boards show no apparent damage.

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

I switched the red wires on X2 that I had connected to the pressure switch to the thermistor where they should be, I made sure that the wires to the program selector and right hand side of the pressure switch were correct – one (red/green) goes down to the heater element as it should now with the other (violet/green) to the heater relay. I presume that the pressure switch and heater relay form a circuit in series, is this right?

The pressure switch hose is clear and the machine fills correctly, so I’m not sure where to look next.

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

It seems that I spoke too soon. My machine seems to function as it should apart from the fact that fast spin now appears to have gone missing. On Fast Spin program P, the machine has the pump running constantly but the drum just agitates in forward and reverse a few turns every 10 seconds or so, there’s no slow or fast spin. What have I got wrong now? I want to take a large hammer to this *@:£${e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}!! machine now…

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

I was working on my son’s motorbike yesterday for about five hours before I started with the washing machine. I was knackered after a long day and was making mistakes due to tiredness that I spotted immediately after a good night’s sleep, looking at the connections again with a clear head.

‘Johnny 5’ is apparently alive and doing a test wash as I type this. Thanks all! 🙂

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

I think I understand, is that some kind of temperature control?

Sorry, what’s an NTC?

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

Hmm, maybe I’ve confused myself when I’ve been tracing the wiring through, if the hot valve is part of the keyed six-way connector. As posted above, My wiring replicates the wiring in the video clip, so I am confident as I can be that nothing at that end is connected incorrectly.

Maybe my error lies elsewhere in the machine.

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

Could you please be a bit more specific as to which of ‘those’ ones are wrong and which ones I need to change? Your reply isn’t much help to me.

The pressure switch is connected with two reds to the left, two blacks to the right and they are keyed, so they can’t be switched over.

Having read rule 8 now, I withdraw the request for a diagram. Apologies.

My wiring to the control module matches the wiring seen at 1:21 in this Youtube clip.

Re: Hotpoint WMA 11P filling then emptying after bearings ch

Thanks,

Most of the wiring to the module (and the machine) can’t be connected incorrectly due to keyed plugs, although the 2-pin plug with all black wires can connect to two possible connections on the module, either X9 or X6 and I had marked them on the spare board, so it’s connected to X9. The hot water solenoid is on X2 and cold water on X11 and it’s filling water correctly, so what have I connected incorrectly to trigger an instant empty and ‘Prog End’? Even the pressure switch connections are keyed so you can’t get them wrong. The board is correctly programmed for a WMA 11 as I’ve checked that using information from the selfix-uk website. I’m stumped.

Re: Beko WMA 510S – pulsing cold water supply on spin cycle?

Hi

Sorry about the name, I didn’t mean to cause offence. 😳

I cleaned the motor up and everything is working fine now; thanks very much for all of your help, I am very grateful.

😀

Re: Beko WMA 510S – pulsing cold water supply on spin cycle?

OK, new brushes have been fitted and there’s no difference, in fact over the last week or so it’s been getting worse.

I think it’s a motor out job now, to make sure that everything is clean and free from carbon dust.
