TITLE:
"F08"at end of cycle and "clean filter"indication
SUBJECT:
A new software for the controlboards mentioned below has been released. The new software includes a modifi-
cation of F08 identification and an improvement of the pump cycle in order to avoid "long drain"and "clean filter"indications,
caused by ecoball sticking.
REMEDIAL ACTION
"F 08": If that failure indication appears at the end of a wash cycle and all parts like heating element and wiring are ok, then
replace the original control board by the new one and program the board by SAM.
"clean filter": If this indication appears, but the pump filter and the drain hoses are empty, not kinked and well mounted
and it is sure, that the indication is related to ecoball sticking in the drain hose (tub-pump) even it is already replaced by
the new version (SB 481271240326), then replace the original control board by the new one and program the board by SAM.
Only the mentioned basic control boards are available with the new software!
Please use the new control boards as spare part only in case of the above described behaviours. For any other rea-
son, please use the control boards according to Service Info.
The control boards will be substituted by the new versions step by step in respect of the production capacity of the supplier.
It’s planned to introduce the new control boards in production completely until week39 2009.
