MK sockets thumbup.gif else Hager one also can. I usually go with MK, the internals are built better.
Schneider framed type, despite the name their frame sucks, easy to pop off.

There's two types of 13A sockets:
1. framed (with a pop on picture frame type)
2. frameless (1 piece) sockets.

MK S2757 is the picture frame one, after installation check frame logo which side up, hang it on top edge, with ur hand just chop chop the bottom corners in. (Flush fit to wall like wooden ruler thickness).

MK E2757 is the 1 piece frameless one. (Raised fit about phone thickness). This one no frame to worry about, nothing to pop loose.
About 4.60-5 bucks each on shopee.

Choice of framed or frameless is yours, dep whether u have next door switch to match height with, or this is standalone. If standalone, fuss free the E2757 cannot go wrong.

thanks for detailed recommendation.. didn't know MK could be cheaper than mrd1y brand.. lol

btw.. no problem with looping sockets right? currently there are 3 sockets looped from same wirings.. one used for washer, one for dryer, another one standby..

Should be no problem if all the looped sockets were installed by an electrician laugh.gif If there is an overload condition, the MCB at DB box will trip.

1. Before using a test pen, poke it inside a Live terminal (when power is still on) to check that the test pen works.
2. You just need to replace the sockets like-for-like, after turning off everything in the whole DB box before you start to open things up.
3. Before handling/touching any wires, also check again with test pen to confirm they are all unpowered just in case you have funny configurations like more than 1 DB box (in some places) or its actually powered from the neighbour's DB box.
4. Test again one more time to confirm sure. A second test never killed anyone. Lack of testing, well, they are no longer with us.

so i have replaced all the wall switch sockets with MK, took this chance to check all looped wirings inside.. all looks good.. no melt/burnt.. make sure installed nicely and securely..
now when turned on and started the dryer.. it shows same error EHO again.. lol

btw.. before the work starts.. i turned off the fuse from the mainbox.. got to know that fuse actually used for few things (so should be under same wiring):

fridge - turned on all time ofcoz
air fryer - turned off
oven - turned off
radio - turned off
washer - turned off
dryer - turn on to test
standby - not using

Nothing wrong with the wiring or socket if other appliances is working. Repair the washer or buy new.

the dryer on and off not working while most of time not working.. electrolux quoted to change board and user interface (not sure why need to change this) and with labour charge total rm800.. warranty one month..

really not sure if worth the fix with short warranty period..

if decided to change new.. recommendation please? for indoor use.

should have short listed the cause of the issue.. likely due to one of the capacitor.. Electrolux installed with Ducati 7uf 425V/475V..

Finding some replacement at shopee.. same model cost rm38.. but cheaper option is less than rm10 but the V is 400V/450V.. but wonder is it compatible? see photos for better reference..
