This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.

IWDE7145 trips fusebox on wash cycles

The problem
An IWDE7145 washer dryer trips the main fusebox whenever a wash cycle is started. The appliance had been working normally, then tripped the fusebox during a wash. After resetting, the drain cycle worked, but selecting a wash cycle caused the fusebox to trip again.
Likely cause
An electrical fault is strongly suggested, but the discussion does not identify the exact component or circuit at fault.
What fixed it
The accepted advice was that this type of fault normally requires engineer diagnosis because suitable test equipment is needed. No specific repair was documented in the thread.
Checks to try
  • Confirmed that the drain cycle operated without tripping the fusebox
  • Confirmed that selecting a wash cycle repeatedly tripped the fusebox

Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

Hello there. Tripping the main fuse box is something that usually needs an engineer to diagnose. There is very little you can do because you need expensive test equipment. However, there are a few things that can be checked as described in my article here Washing Machine Tripping or Fusing Electrics
