    Testing mains filter/suppressor on dishwasher

    The suppressor looks ok. I've refitted it and started a wash cycle. The machine stops with a bang, tripping the RCD at a point at the end of the cold pre-rinse stage. So pump or heater? Not sure when the heater activates.

    Testing mains filter/suppressor on dishwasher

    I've replaced the filter, restored mains and it didn't trip. It now turns and fills but I've switched it off before it reached the point at which it "blew" So I suspect the filter is ok and probably the fault is in the heater or pump? It had started to rinse when it tripped.
