Hey Guys

Started my ZWF1217W off with a load of bedding etc Tues eve and walked away (as ya do).
10 minutes later BEEEEEP!!!
Display was flashing E10(water inlet problem)- oh forgot to turn the tap on I thought, but no that was fine!.
Anyhow it filled when I set it to rinse so Im presuming one of the solenoids on the valve has failed- ordered a new valve which came yesterday,so guess what im upto tonight ;). Only problem is my Creda T601CW stands on top of it and its a pretty tight alcove to lift it off so im gonna have fun lol!!.

Repair

Good luck with the repair Seamus, I hope you diagnosed the fault correctly and don't have the frustration of waiting on another part to arrive.

Hey Nick


The double valve it was- £12 and a lot of cursing whilst lifting the dryer off and its sorted :)

Nice one fella

Nothing like the satisfaction of a job well done and I'm sure you'll agree that £12 plus cursing is better than paying someone else to do it especially if you don't know how good they are..

Hey Mate
Thats very true- I work in a sales/repair shop so the £12 was cost as well ;)- so was the £190 I paid for the machine. Perks of the job lol !
