    Just to give the last update regarding this issue in case somebody had the same problem. I installed the new heating element that I bought. It come together with a heat sensor as well. Initially, it worked, but only partially. No RCD trip, just to confirm the problem was the heating element...

    Shorting washing machine (Ed.)

    thanks John. When the issue started, I actually did try a cold wash cycle, but it shorted after 10/12 minutes running. As I was saying earlier, now it shorts as soon as I turned it on. Maybe this is even better as a random short cut could have been more difficult to locate. I will check for...

    Shorting washing machine (Ed.)

    Initially it was after 10 minutes of a wash cycle (either cold or hot), but not if I run something like spin/drain. Now, as soon as I turn on the machine. If I switch on the socket and the machine is off, nothing happens. To be honest, now I am curious to understand what is happening even if...

    Shorting washing machine (Ed.)

    I agree, thanks, this is why I would like to find out where the problem is. Otherwise, I will need to buy a new machine (it's 10 years old, not sure it is worth repairing it).
