I'm aware of the multiple threads regarding flashing and C17 fix etc. Although my issue is a little unique.
My Hotpoint WT540 has recently began failing. At first there were certain lights flashing then all of them started flashing (indication PCB failure).
Most recently all lights flash then they slowly die away to nothing then a few seconds later the same happens, cycling. This is all pointing to a capacitor on it's way out.
I've followed the threads regarding the C17 however my PCB does not have a C17 but a C65. The capacitor visually looks fine and is the same rating as the C17 in other models.
Before I go replacing this, can anybody confirm this one needs replacing or provide any new information.
I'm stuck with a load of washing and getting totally fed up now
Here's a picture of what it looks like:
