Candy GO 282 error

[lee721]

Thanks for your reply, I have some more to add, last night i saw it doing its continious refill with all the lights going off then refilling again however i gave it a little bang ( in anger ) above the program selector and all the lights came back on and It continued it cycle, I have checked the wiring before and that seemed ok is there anything else a little bang there could be jogging?

Take off & re-seat the pcb/panel-card plugs & give it another whirl. It could be a communication issue between the pcb & panel card (Hoover/Candy electronics are not among the best around).

You mean the front panel with the LEDs in?
I will give that a try and report back, everytime I think I cracked it goes again, is the panel and selector on this machine the same as a 1482 as I see a whole front end on eBay it could be worth a try if there the same

As far as I can tell the panel card on a GO1482 isn't the same as a GO282...two different art numbers
I need the full model details to be 100% sure (on the door sticker).

Ok no problem obviously I have my model number but no way of finding that out from the one on eBay, I will just have to buy a new board if need be, I will try a few more bits on it, can't be much more it can be

After months of the machine still playing up the selector packed up, it had never really been a problem before so never gave it a thought, anyway swapped it for a new one and it seems that this may have been the problem all along, I thought i'd just post on here again just in-case it was of help to someone.

At least I have enough spare parts now to keep it going for years
