My own appliance
Tank full light came on and dryer was not drying the clothes. Collector tank top left was empty
Removed the condenser unit and flushed both ways
Removed the back and looked at the pump gubbins- float was high up and operating the switch to display the TANK FULL led
Removed the sump and pump. Pump impeller was clear ( removed the shroud around the pump impeller) and spindle was free to rotate
Removed all the water from the sump and any lint within.
Put fly lead on the motor- it ran to discharge water into the tank at the tap
Removed the pcb. Relay 1 applies 240 to the pump
Relay is ALJ112, 12 volt 700 ohm coil resistance and contact is rated at 3amp. Similar relays found on some boiler pcbs that run the fan. Contacts don’t last to eventually not switch despite having operated. Have order same relay which will be changed hoping that will resolve the issue.
You pros here, am I on the right track or the wrong ball park
Thanks for reading
