Hi Harry, That is the only thing I have done as suggested earlier, disconnected the live brown on the switch, closed the breaker and the the RCD still trips. So I'm looking at a cable fault between switch and breaker? I'm pretty sure, though not 100% that the cable will run under the floor...

Not sure what you mean. Only thing I have done physically with the cabling is disconnect at the light switch. Is that classed as splitting the circuit?

No problem and thanks for your input. (y) In hindsight I probably should have added pictures on the original post!

No problem and thanks for your input. I think you are probably right though on getting some one in!

no, but we are in a basement with a large communal garden behind and I think a void under the floor which increases towards the rear, so I think it is safe to assume they are about, rats that is. You suspect rodent damage under the floor between switch and breaker?

Evening Gentlemen, Apologies if I may have caused any confusion. Below is the panel in question. Note the labelling is misaligned and needs to move 1 to the left, I believe 'lights #4' is the circuit with the issue not 'Bath lights'. When that breaker is closed, the breaker labelled RCD with...

Ok, disconnected and made safe, power on and still trips. I assume this points to the cable between the switch and breaker being the issue?

I don't think so, looks like a sealed unit. A Tamlite TLED-455/WW Tilt 8W LED. Yes, neutral and live into the switch

Yes, I've taken the switch off. Clean and dry. Is it worth checking the light fittings or will they be OK, given the circuit trips regardless of the position of the light switch?

Thank you for the replies. Much appreciated.(y) There are no outside lights. There are 6 spots on the circuit. The circuit trips with the light switch in either position so I thought the fault is not related to the light fittings or that part of the circuit. Is that a safe assumption or should...

Hello, I have an RCD that is tripping. I have by elimination found it is a lighting circuit. When closing the breaker for that circuit the RCD trips with the light switch in either position. I've tried replacing the switch with the same result. I am assuming the fault is on the cable to the...

Rocks1 and PrenticeBoyofDerry, I bit late I know but just wanted to say thanks for your help and highlighting the problem. A holiday delayed this thank you message. I replaced the part and the machine is now working prefectly, cost to me about £20 and some of my time. :-) Many Thanks...

Sorted, thanks. Now the jubilee type clip. Is there a simple way to pop it off or is it prised off and replaced. Many thanks. Kippy

Hi rocks1, Any tips on how to loosen the nut? :-) Trying to loosen It by hand ain't working. Is there a retainng screw somewhere? Or do I need a special tool? Thanks again. Kippy

Hi Rocks1, Is this what you are talking about? http://shop.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/c00256546-dishwasher-air-break-turbine How easy isit to fit?

Hi PrenticeBoyofDerry, Here is the manual link, bottom of page 15 http://imagebank.indesitcompany.co.uk/brochures_online/pdf/Hotpoint/Dishwashers/FDF784_19507664900_UK-USA-AUS.pdf It's out of warranty so keen to try any simple stuff before calling on an engineer I have checked the...

Hi PrenticeBoyofDerry, Thanks for that. Where did you get that info from? The user manual gives A-7 as a blocked water filter? If it is turbine related is that a service call or something easy to investigate / resolve?

Help and advice appreciated. I have the above dishwasher which is giving an error code of A-7, which I believe means the mains water feed is blocked. When I turn the dishwasher on I hear and feel water going into the machine, 1 or 2 minutes later it shows A-7 and I can feel and hear water...
