Service Manual IW 1209.0W / IWT 1259.0W 5.2 Display Module The display module is attached to the back of the control panel. It provides the user with information on all aspects of the machine’s operation. The button functions are determined by the type of control unit fitted and the design of the particular machine.
Service Manual IW 1209.0W / IWT 1259.0W 5.4 Water Inlet Valve The water inlet valve is mounted on the control panel. It performs the following tasks: it moves the detergent dispenser lever mechanism, in order to direct water into the different compartments during the wash programme.
Page 28
Service Manual IW 1209.0W / IWT 1259.0W Water Inlet Valve Contact Sequence The microprocessor actuates and controls the water inlet valve. The inlet valve motor (contacts T7-1/T7-2) is powered via a triac in the control unit. In order to avoid wear on the contacts, the current supply to the loads is interrupted before the motor is energised.
Service Manual IW 1209.0W / IWT 1259.0W 5.5 Electronic Pressure Switch The electronic pressure switch is an analogue device for monitoring the water level in the tub. It is directly connected to the control unit. If the pressure switch should fail, the appliance will switch off immediately.

Service Manual IW 1209.0W / IWT 1259.0W 5.6 Motor Speed Control 1. Control unit 2. Motor Motor speed control is regenerative via a TY4 triac. The rectifier (GR2) converts AC to DC to supply power to the motor. The switching of the motor windings (M) and the stator (ST) needed to change the motor’s rotational direction is performed using a relay (K1) located in the control unit.
Page 32
Service Manual IW 1209.0W / IWT 1259.0W 5.6.1 Foam Control A pressure switch monitors foam build-up during the spin programmes. This improves the efficiency of the rinsing operation even when the water level is low. If the pressure switch actuates when draining on spin, signifying the presence of foam in the tub, power is cut to the motor and the spin cycle is interrupted.
