YEAH! Yesterday I definitively wire two new inlet valves...
I'm unpleasent to haven't get restored the original ones but now I honestly haven't got so spare time to do that... I'll save them to do it nexlty.
The leak from the hot-valves was the responsible of the water droppin onto the motor so that it seemed not working again in wash speed, although the related capacitor either was demaged.
I thought I had to buy two different type of inlet valves (here there are the cold water valves and the hot water valves), but they gave me a pair of "universali"...they say Tm25°C, TM90°C3min10sec... does the fill period last more than 3min? And should I hook up the machine on 90°C outlet? Now I use the Y...in the future I'm going to hook it up to the hot water (we're going to place solar panels!) but it would reach 50-60°C max, so it should be good the same...or should I go looking for the specific Tm60°C, TM120°C inlet valve!?
Apart fron the missin latch of the drum closing (whihc I hope soon to be able to rebuild!), the machine WORKS PERFECTLY!
It fills, then tumble for a while, stay soaking heating the water and then go on tumbling again and stay heating until the temperature is reached...then goes in rinse cycles and woom-woom-woom-woom-woom!!! And finally the spin!
There still was a very little leaks just where the heating elements joint the outertub (there should be the seals over there, but I prefer to make them stronger adding a bit of temp-proof silicone!), but it needs a bit more.
My father said to me "AH, alla fine ce l'hai fatta farla funzionare...e si accende pure la luce!" he was referring with "luce" to the heating red-led!
I cannot see the hour of fixing the drum and then my First Italian Top Loading Horizontal Axis Superautomatic Washin Machine works again!
Promised that as soon as possible many pictures and so some video either will come for you!
THANKS ALL!
GOOD BYE

PS: I should repair some othe little things (such as some scratches on cabinet) to be a very completely restoration but to show it you working I think it could be enough!

No problem...the farer you come the better will be the welcome! I'd be happy indeed if you would like to come to visit Ignis... write me via e-mail if you're planning "una visita tra langhe e roero..."
