Thanks - I thought it looked a bit like that. I'll screw it all back together and see what happens then :?

I finally got a clear day today to take the machine apart (and it was purely coincidence that I'd just run out of washing up liquid :wink: ). I took off the hose section that joins the sump to the drain pump and a hairball and a couple of bits of plastic fell out: Are these likely to...

Thanks for that - when I get a clear day I'll have another tinker :)

You see, I didn't think of that :roll: But it's clear. If it's a faulty pump I guess it's marigold time as they seem to be about £130. How do I get to it to check for debris? No voltage? I had the door off about 3 weeks ago and disconnected all the wires from the control panel before...

Cheers Taylortwocities - fair point :wink: Yep, tried that. As I said, disconnecting the fan was the only thing that stopped it tripping.

It might be an electrician's answer ;) Anyway, i was in a hurry and missed that forum wheni scanned through the list. I'll pop over there and ask, thanks.

Hi all. After being switched on for a few minutes the oven trips the circuit breaker in the house fuse box. I've disconnected various components inside the ovento try and see if I can stop it from tripping the RCD. Disconnecting the elements didn't have any effect but when the oven fan motor...
