I'm fixing a friends S24 which is in great condition but it is just tripping the safety switch, this only just recently happened he told me that it happened out of no where.
I opened up the case to see if there was any corrosion over any terminals or the power block and there is no corrosion whatsoever over any parts so I need to just start eliminating issues.
-Basically it turns on, pump initiates (I'm not quite sure if it is actually pumping water or not? Next time I turn it on I'll check the tank if water levels drop)
-Pump continues, continues, continues. Doesn't seem to stop.
-Anti vac valve starts releasing air? (The only corrosion in the machine is around the circlip of the anti vac valve so maybe this will either need to be replaced or maybe a bath in citric acid or descaler.)
-Then... Boom
Then if I flick the safety switch and turn it on again... Boom.
If I let it cool down the same process repeats.
Suggestions would be welcomed
