    SOLVED Whirlpool dishwasher - blows fuses and burning smell

    Marking this as SOLVED. I replaced the heater today and it's working just fine. However I no longer think that the old heater was faulty. After closer inspection of the connector on the heater (at the melting / charring), I see that both terminals must have touched each other after the...

    SOLVED Whirlpool dishwasher - blows fuses and burning smell

    I've hunted down the relay info on a web site. Looks like it is normally open - which appears to be the case when I buzz it out. Any idea what the other smaller relay does? When I had the machine together yesterday I was getting a "Fd" fault code, which I'm guessing is to do with the door...

    SOLVED Whirlpool dishwasher - blows fuses and burning smell

    I tried measuring as you suggested but the metre shows infinite ohms but as you say, that may be inconclusive. Seems strange that it measures 25 ohms though, I'd have to guess it's breaking down when it begins to heat up. That, and the charring / melting must mean that the heater is the most...

    SOLVED Whirlpool dishwasher - blows fuses and burning smell

    I'm getting 25 ohms but I think this is where the problem lies. I couldn't get the power connector off - turns out it was charred / melted on to the receptacle on the heater (uploading pics in a minute). 25 ohms seems ok does it not? Maybe it's suffering when under load? I've searched...

    SOLVED Whirlpool dishwasher - blows fuses and burning smell

    I have a Whirlpool ADP 8900 which is around 4 - 5 year old. A few days ago it stopped mid-cycle with a burning smell in the kitchen. It blew the 13A fuse in the plug of the dishwasher and also the 30A fuse in my consumer unit (although strangely not the 13A fuse in the spur it's fed from on the...

    Upgrading loft shower fan - any wiring issues?

    I'm having a similar problem to some others on this forum re condensation / pooling in my loft ducting from the shower. I have a run of about 5m total from shower ceiling inlet to vent outlet including an initial rise of about 0.5m for the ducting to get over a roof beam. My current fan is...

    Connecting new circuit to consumer unit for oven & hob.

    Thank you for your very informative reply. Yes I do indeed have fuse holders. They were fitted when the house was built around 10-11 years ago. The (double-under) oven manual states that the appliance should be connected using a double pole control unit of 32A capacity, with 3mm minimum...
