my BLOMBERG 1301 ABB Has blown pcb wires close to the same area on pcb 2 times .I have had pcb repaired on both occasions, and checked all wiring conections which are ok , it seems to do this on the spin cycle & as water is being pumped out .Could this be something to do with the motor capacitator ?
or possibly the pump ? any advice with this problem would be recieved with thanks

Its not the pump

the wires that run down the right hand side of the drom i.e door lock have a habbit of breaking free and whereing on the exposed bum if this happen is shorts out the pcb chek that the black wires are not damaged if the are the simple electrical tap will fix them if not the guy who said about the door lock is right as its also a common problem

I think its your door switch which is shorting and blowing the tracks of the pcb. the door switch itself is inexpensive if u get it from the right place. (between 18 to 67 pounds if u shop around on the net), so be sure u dont get ripped off. this is definitely a common problem with this machine esp if the tracks are blown on the side where the timer assembly is and where loads of plugs go into it (left side lookin at it from above).

post a picture of the pcb with the wire connections intact nr where the tracks are blown, its mmore than likely a door lock failure. its a common problem with this machine, but occasionally its the plugs incorrectly configured.

sounds like the pump to me
