Hi Prid, you do not mention any error codes or bleeping so I would assume the machine recirc motor is faulty.Sometimes the capacitor goes on these so it is quite cheap.If you need a recirc motor complete,as this is a SMEG built appliance then it is quite dear.It will be approx £110 plus vat and postage for the part and labour if you need someone to fit it.All the best.
