Just removed wiring from drain pump [red and green + black wire] on my hoover quattro system 1300 washing machine and I was sure the green + black wire went to the terminal marked L and the red to N but surely red is usually live and should go to L and green + black to N. Can someone please confirm which way round the wires go or point me to a wiring diagram for the machine.
Just had another look and the g+b go to a circuit board near control knob and red goes to hot and cold inlet valves.
 
I would have thought it was an AC supply in which case it would not matter which way round they were, but the fact that they are marked L & N is a little confusing, do you have a multimeter you can measure the supply to the pump with, if so what is the voltage reading?
 
Fitted the g+b wire to the terminal Marked L and it seems to work although the pumps bearing have failed so it's not very efficient and not draining sufficiently to allow machine to go to fast spin speed.
Machines a pain to to pull out but I've ordered a new pump so when that arrives I will check the supply voltage to both wires.
Does anyone know if there are any wiring diagrams available to download.
 
impossible only avalible to the trade :shock:
