1 PURPOSE OF THIS SERVICE MANUAL
The purpose of this Service Manual is to provide Service Engineers, who already have the basic knowledge
necessary to repair household washing machines, with information of a general nature regarding the P6000
(Nexus) range of washing machines.
More detailed information regarding specific models may be found in the Service Notes and Service
Manuals (issued separately) for each specific model or functionality.
This information covers:
Circuit diagrams
Timer diagrams
Exploded diagrams of spare parts
Lists of spare parts
Functions and diagnostics.
2 IMPORTANT NOTES
Repairs to electrical appliances must be effected only by qualified personnel.
Before accessing the components inside the appliance, always remove the plug from the power socket.
Where possible, ohmic measurements should be effected rather than direct measurement of voltage
and current.
Functional operation of the appliance may be checked when the rear panel has been removed.
However, under no circumstances must a spin cycle be performed with washing in the drum. In addition,
spin tests without washing must be performed with care and for short periods only. The front panel alone
is not sufficient to maintain the balance of the appliance during spinning.
Certain metal components inside the appliance may have sharp edges. Care should be taken to avoid
cuts or abrasions.
Before laying the appliance on the floor, always drain any water by removing the filter or laying the drain
hose flat on the floor.
Never lay the appliance on its right side (i.e. timer / electronic control unit side); this would cause the
water in the detergent dispenser to fall onto electrical components, thus damaging them.
After removing the rear panel of the cabinet, the appliance should be laid down on the front panel only,
preferably placing a sheet of cardboard on the floor to protect the paintwork.
After removing the rear panel from the appliance,
it is necessary to cover the two extremities of the
upper cross-member with protective material, for
example by wrapping them in a cloth or fitting the
terminal section of the drain hose. This precaution
is necessary because the edges of the brackets
are sharp, and might otherwise cause injury to the
head when working on the appliance from the
rear.
After repairing the appliance, always perform the
final tests.
