Wf860p test mode faulty module

Many thanks to all who answer this but i have tried all the above to no avail, there is no burn marks or signs on any parts of the board, i have tested the motor / heater / solenoids / pump / pressure switch etc, like i said earlier i am a retired appliance engineer of 20 years experience but not come across this fault and embarrassing as it is it is my machine, i don't have Hotpoint's test equipment and Hotpoint are not helpful, i do have the ability to correct the fault once told where to look (have i missed something) signed Mick

Mick, I faced a problem like that in the past and finaly I was lucky and found out that the problem was a "cold soldering" on the board. Good luck!

New memory, the board just beeps

First of all that board supports DDR400 (PC3200) so why did you get PC2100 chips?

Anyway, do a bare minimum test (only MB, CPU, RAM & PSU connected, nothing else). Remove all the RAM and test each one individually. Properly insert one into the first RAM slot and test by booting until the POST RAM test is finished. Shutdown and repeat the test with the same RAM module in slot 2 and keep repeating this for every slot. If successful in every slot, mark that module as working then try the other RAM modules using the same procedure.

  • As soon as you find one that doesn't fully pass the POST test, mark it as faulty.
  • If some pass in one slot but not another, then mark it as faulty.
  • If they all fail to pass on a specific slot, mark that slot as faulty and don't use it (you can use electrical tape to cover the slot for future reference).

Once you've finished the bare minimum test, try 2 RAM modules this time (use only the modules that you found to be working from the above tests). Mix and match the RAM modules & then try 3 together and even 4 (if you found all of them to be working fine).

Finally once you're satisfied you've found the modules that work properly, boot with memtest and test the RAM for any problems. If they all seem to work fine individually, boot them individually and test with memtest to determine which ones are actually faulty.

Cylinder 1 is not firing

Instructions1 Use a wiring diagram for the year model of your vehicle. Locate the terminals running into and out of the ignition module. Placement of the module varies from model to model so check the appropiate service manual of your vehicle for the exact location.
2 Turn the ignition on and use your DVOM to check for voltage to the ignition module and the positive terminal of the ignition coil. Place the negative lead of your DVOM to a solid ground and use the positive lead to probe the wires running to the ignition module and to the ignition coil.
3 If your DVOM shows that voltage is present at both locations, remove the DVOM leads and set the meter aside. Connect the ground lead from the 12-volt test light to the negative terminal on the ignition coil. Have your partner crank the engine over several times. Your test light should flicker on and off. If so, your module is working properly and no further testing is necessary.
4 If your test light does not flicker on and off, visually inspect the wires running into and out of the ignition module. Look for burn marks, melted wire insulation and breaks in the wires. Use your wire splicing tool to remove the bad area in the wire and use your wire connectors and splicing tool to repair the faulty wires.
5 Use your DVOM to check for an open circuit condition in the primary coil winding. Touch the negative probe to the negative terminal on the ignition coil, touch the positive lead to the positive terminal. Set the meter to read ohms. If the reading shows infinite ohms, your ignition module is faulty and should be replaced. Follow the service manual instructions for replacing your ignition coil.
6 Look to see if the DVOM test shows low to no ohms; if so, then you have a faulty ignition module that will have to be replaced. Follow the service manual instructions for your vehicle to replace the module.
Thanks

Trying to burn a movie from a new burner by samsung 22x 768564 dvd, but the green line doesn't keep up with the timer, i let 1 movie burn for 12 hours on timer and all it did was encode, didn't...

should not take 12 hrs to burn
does it burn data cd/dvd or audio cd/dvd's ?
you might have to burn it as an ISO image
this might be because you have not selected the option to burn a dvd movie you might have selected another option ie:burn data audio or your burning software does not support movie dvd burning
there are plenty of free burning software programs on the internet

make sure that the cd-dvd burner is getting enough power test all leads that are attached to the dvd drive including electrical extensions and make sure they have a secure connection or just replace them there might be bad/faulty or

if this does not fix the problem it might be a registry problem

My amp overheated and entered protect mode and I smelled burnt wiring what do I need to do

Disconnect all speaker connections and rca cables. Leave power, ground and remote wires intact. Try turning on again. If you still have a protection light your amp is faulty. Hopefully you have warranty . Please check speakers prior to connecting another amp. .A thumbs up would be greatly appreciated if this answer is helpful to you

Ice maker tray is getting too much water and freezing in a sheet over the cubes. When it dumps, we have crushed ice rather than ice cubes. Thanks for any help on adjusting water fill up.

You don't specify, but I suspect this is a Whirlpool built refrigerator. If so, the module is likely faulty. Remove the plastic cover from the icemaker to expose the white gear. Look closely at it for any discoloration or burn marks. If you see anything, you will need to replace the module.

No shift or gauges on 92 Chevy 454

i would first look at the main harness going to your ecm(engine control module) there is a 60 pin connector the bolt that hold the connector is a 10 mm remove the bolt and remove the connector it should be clean with no burn marks to show signs of a short. if there are burn marks not only must you replace the connector but you fried the ecm as well and that needs replacing. also check your relays. often times even though you don't blow a fuse the relay still may short out. this is a good place to start. let me know the results

I have an F8 fault on my hotpoint wf860p machine....any ideas?

f8 is shown when the heater circuit is on with no water in.. it doesnt do it when you unplug the pressure switch because your disabling the heat protect circuit

THE BOARD IS PROBABLY FAULTY

F08 indicates pressure switch stuck on full.



Unplug the appliance from the wall socket.

Take the top off the machine.

Locate the pressure switch, you can identify it by the thin tube attached to it.

Take the tube off, blow down this tube as hard as you can to shift any blockage or restriction in the pressure chamber. Give the pressure switch a couple of good taps with the screwdriver handle.

Refit the tube and try the machine again.

If still doing it, unplug again and follow the tube down.

This end will be attached to the pressure chamber.

Take this chamber off and thoroughly clean it out, clean out the port into the tub too.

Reassemble and try again.



If after this it's still faulty you'll need to start replacing parts.

I'd suggest trying a new pressure switch first.

Failing this, if all of the above fails to resolve the problem you're possibly looking at a faulty main control board.

Wf860p computer control automatic

I have had this problem it is caused by accidentally pressing both the on and start button together. It puts the machine into demo mode. You need to press both the buttons together again for about 30 seconds. If it doesn't work first time switch the machine off and do it again. Sometimes you have to do this many times before it works but eventually it does work.
Very frustrating.
I found the cause was either leaning on the front of the machine or resting a broom which when you pick it up accidentally presses the two buttons.
