My WF860 washing machine has developed a fault whereby whenever it is heating the water, after 2 to 3 minutes, the entire machine switches itself off. If left the display will flicker on/off a few times and then it will turn back on and continue to heat the water but only for a short time before turning itself off again. If left long enough, the water does come up to temperature but with it turning off all the time it takes forever. A rinse and spin program works fine.
I have taken the control board out and checked for dry joints and domed capacitors but there are no problems. I changed the 680mF capacitor (though on this board it is not C17) for good measure too; still no joy.
Should I try a secondhand control module or does anyone know what the problem might be?
