    Okay, I give in.

    How can a timer work at 95{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}? It’s an electro-mechanical device, it works or it doesn’t.

    Does anyone know if those were the Candy timers that spontaneously burst into flames? Or not, depending on whether you believe the Candy propoganda machine as then they would only have “failed”. 😉

    92745272 is the part number for this programme timer, and it is over £100, plus VAT, plus P+P.

    Contact spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk for exact prices and ordering.

    Well, right the timer is a mechanical device which opens and closes switches all the time. However in time when it wears off the switches sometimes do not close properly, it depends on where the program is since at a place where many switches should be closed the pressure is higher and the whole system bends a little bit from the pressure etc.

    It is not easy to explain really but it works 95{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} due to the fact that the machine doesnt get flooded and it washes clothes good 🙂 However I feel that it doesnt turn the drum everytime it is suppose to. This is especially a little problem in rinse since I realized that it sometimes do not cycle at one or two of the three rinse cycles.

    Is it possible to be 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} sure about this part number? I found the number from:
    http://www.rei-components.com/commerce/ … odotto=147
    According to the picture from the side of the timer:
    http://master.titol.fi/~yurtesen/CIMG0706.JPG
    It says Type 2000/2008-3163
    So the part number should be right, isnt it? (Although the picture in the site is different, it seems like a generic picture so…)

    IIRC those timers have been modified Evren, hence my comment about fires and, if they have then the number won’t tie on the actual spare itself.

    That doesnt make any sense. How can one know which part he/she is ordering if all the part numbers are modified and now they have different meanings?

    But cant one see from the database the type number 2000/2008-3163
    while ordering the part?

    So what you are saying is that if I order the timer with that part number, it wont be the same or compatible with the one I have now?

    Thanks,

    Evren, maybe I should explain…

    We often get this, modified spares that is, and when it happens we have to usually follow the trail to get a price on it. The information in that article is valid in that all we see is a line drawing, we get very little additional information more often than not. This means we get no timer numbers as they’re only really for production purposes as a general rule, no measurements and no photographs, in fact, we often don’t know whether the part is right or wrong till we have it physically in our hands.

    And, should the spare be modified, it’s not entirely unusual for us not to be told, sometimes we are simply expected to guess or work it out.

    Good innit? 😉

    Yes, but if the part is wrong when you physically get it, you wouldnt send it to your customer right? or if that happens that the part is different but uk whitegoods didnt realize it. Then you would accept a return of an unused part, right? I have made very detailed pictures of the timer itself. Anyhow, I think I have to take the risk… 🙂 Thanks for the warning though…

    💡 Sticking dispenser linkage perhaps?

    Well, I know it is the timer. It kind of has been my guinea pig. I had to open it several times to pieces and put back, because it took 5-6 tries to find out exactly what sticks best inside the timer. However I think it wasnt designed for opening/closing that many times. So it doesnt turn right position sometimes and goes few mm extra, but when I move it by hand a bit backwards then things start working normally again 🙂

    Yes indeed from what you say, the Timer is in fact, as we say in the trade here in the UK…..

    Hi all, just came to check up how things are going here 🙂

    With the new timer and bearings, the machine has been working for a year now. I would like to thank all of you for your comments, tips and advices.

    The machine is used almost daily and some days 3 times a day. (lots of dirty clothes :p) I think I can consider this as a success.

    Thanks again,
    Evren

    Re: candy alise 105 changing bearings

    yurtesen,

    Hi, wonder if you spare me 5 mins of your time. You’re obviously very experienced with Candy washers. I have a 13 yr old Candy Aquaviva 1000 machine. The bearings have just gone. I have stripped the machine as much as I can, got the motor off. Just the drum housing left in the machine. Do I need to remove the drum outer housing out of the chassis? Is it a sealed type drum like in your alise 105? Or once I undo the pulley bolt at the back at will magically open up (silly questionI know). Never done one of these before! if the drum needs to come out, is it best to lie it on one side and slide out the drum housing, or do I have to get help and lift it out the top?

    I would really appreciate a response soon. It has been out of aciton for a week now. Wife pushing me to buy a new one (can’t afford it), and a young family’s clothes piling up.

    Appreciate any advice.

    Yes it is sealed in the same way and yes it is the same nightmare of a job.

    Teh whole tank needs to come out the top to do it.
