Bosch WFF2000 blows fuses

[georgetamay]

Dear All

This is a 10-year old WFF2000.

It stopped in the middle of a 60e wash, still full of water. The mains fuse had blown. I drained the machine.

Internal inspection shows no burned wires. Both main and pump motors rotate fine.

Whatever programme I set it to, the timer starts to click, then there is a determined clunk (not the fsst! one normally associates with a serious electrical fault) and then everything stops. Another fuse has blown.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I can't see how to get at the heater. Can you help?

Thanks.
