After two visits from the "repair man" my washer dryer is still not fully drying (?) and my missus is chewing my balls about it now.
So off with the lid and checked the following.
Condenser water inlet valve motor is sound electrically. Or what i believe is, is so.
Element, stat and sensor appear sound. Pulling 7amps when on, trip not tripped some resistace across the sensor.
Blower fan runs without noise and spins down freely when power removed. Normally I'd spin the cooling fan to test physical resistance but there isn't one.
Pump on discharge fires up occasionally so condensed water is being removed. The water being pumped out is cold which would indicate the condenser is working.
Got it test drying a towel at the moment and it seems to be working fine, maybe it's the missus that's broken.
My only other thought is how it calculates drying time, are they on a load cell?
Anyone any thouhts?
