My Ecobubble washer started to sporadically not want to do spin cycles etc as part of wash programmes, then after a further week it just didn't want to start doing anything.
Reading around the Internet most things pointed back to PCB replacement as the solution.
Upon opening up the rear of the washing machine I was shocked to find a cable loom connecting to the bottom of the washer drum / motor area and covered in insulation sponge had melted down and 3 of the thicker cables completely melted through with a 4th cable containing a cut in the outer covering.
Is this another "known thing" for Samsung washing machines that needs repair?
How do I find if there has been any recall for these ecobubble washers to prevent this sort of fire hazard from happening?
Due to a busy household and washing to be done this weekend, I've had to cut back and splice the melted cables together to allow the machine to work again - but the motion from the drum spins is quite violent and I don't hold much faith in the cable loom surviving for too long!
Full model WW10N645RPX/EU - it's 3-ish years old.
