Does anyone know where I can get hold of a wiring diagram for a
Hotpoint washer Model 9537?

My ol` man used to fix them until he left about 6 months ago - what`s the
problem, I can always bounce the query his way :-p

Cheers Colin,
The machine is tripping the ELCB.
It appears to be doing it when heating the water i.e. fills with
water, turns a few times and waits.
I can't find my megga to test for earth leakage, so I've just pulled
the wires off the element for now (all taped up etc).

*BUT* since then, the machine will not now fill with water - but only
on a 60 degree wash! (40 degrees OK)

I've also been told (this is not my machine by the way), that the
machine was only tripping the ELCB on a 60 degree wash (I initially
thought that the water was hot enough to not require heating at 40
degrees).

So, I'm very interested in what could possibly be so different between
40 and 60 degree washes - I thought it was simply the water temp.

Just as a post note, I've noticed that the "Economy Wash" button will
not stay in when pressed - was wondering if that could have blown and
be leaking to earth.

All in all, that's why I was looking for a wiring diagram.

Thanks for any help - Kevin
