No brand dishwasher
Some 5 years ago, I purchased a semi integrated dishwasher from B&Q as part
of a total kitchen package. The machine has done sterling service since then. It has no maker's name nor model number information. On Sunday I was told that there was a burning smell and the machine didn't work. When I looked at it, there was only a faint aroma of shellac. I found a fork had dropped through the cutlery basket and had impeded the spinner. The machine takes water, heats and pumps out, but there is nothing but a hum from the spinner motor. Obviously we have a problem with the motor or its start capacitor, but I can't see how to get into it. There is a small access panel at kickboard height where I can see the pump etc but that's all. Do I need to turn it upside down and remove the bottom perhaps? -- AJL Electronics (G6FGO) Ltd : Satellite and TV aerial systems http://www.classicmicrocars.co.uk : http://www.ajlelectronics.co.uk |
