I've had an issues on my Hotpoint WT761 Washing Machine tripping out, a few seconds after turning the machine on it would trip a a resetable fuse in my fuse box. I removed the connection to the Heating Element at the back of the machine and the machine would then work fine not tripping out. Seen similar problem on this website and The problem is caused by a faulty element that can cause the trip out. Took the heating element out and found it to be extremely coroded and in a couple of places the metalwork hadd correde through to the actual element core. Procured a new Heating Element.
On fitting the new heating element the machine appeared to work fine. Put it on a 30 min / 30 Degree wash, machine runs and can feel the machine is heating the water. After approx 20 minutes the machine stopped and indicated a Faut Code F-08 on the front panel.
Has any one got any ideasof what could be wrong?
Could it be that the Heating element I fitted is faulty?
Could there be a second problem on the machine that was caused when the machine tripped out originaly
