denlin Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Have you checked fuse and filter? ---------- Post added 20-09-2016 at 18:44 ---------- Also could be loose wire in plug or socket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andysm Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 When you say it is tripping out, do you mean the circuit breakers on the main board or the RCD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugartip Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Could be the heater element, one of ours did it and my fella stripped it and cleaned everything, it was fine after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMR67 Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Could be the capacitor, which is like a starter for the motor. If the motor doesn't turn when you switch it on then this is most likely to be the culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
