As subject - the machine does what it's supposed to do otherwise and there are no leaks evident. The RCD is a 30mA type. Wash cycles complete just fine, including 60deg or 90deg ones, so the heater doesn't seem to be the problem. If I reset the RCD after it trips, the spin cycle completes OK, too.
No unusual noises, either. Motor brushes are newish (1yr old).
Anyone have ideas about what the problem could be?
