Re: The Martin Conumdrum
Totally gratuitous bump.
It’s been a bad day – battery cooked itself in the van and looks like it’s done the alternator as well.
Just wanted to share………

Re: The Martin Conumdrum
Not much better here. first call yesterday was scheduled to take up most of the morning for a WMA drum rear half job, customer was out.
Second call this morning at the behest of a kitchen fitter to a tumble dryer a fair distance away.
I asked him if it was built in and how easily did it come out, “no problem” says he.
Couldn’t budge the bloody thing, a large hammer will need to be applied to the front of the units which is not within my remit. 😈
Even though I was snowed in on Tuesday I have been out every day since.
UPS made a delivery on Monday but I have had nothing from Masterpart ( City Link) for over two weeks now. 😥
Delivery of one order was promised for yesterday but didn’t show. :rolls:Cheesed off Jim, still chesty as well.
Re: The Martin Conumdrum
had to make a 35 mile round trip to DHL depot for my orders as i (or customers anyway) was fed up waiting. On the way back, in Megane, massive rock lauched from oncoming truck hit windscreen leaving a chip far too large to repair.
Re: The Martin Conumdrum
Grrr – it was the alternator. Big bill.
It’s all obviously Martin’s fault. He’ll be insufferable now that his beloved Reading have beaten Liverpool.

Re: The Martin Conumdrum
In the absence of Martin, I have a copy of the test procedure wanted here shall I mail it out to those who request it?

Re: The Martin Conumdrum
Didn’t want to start a new thread when this one will suffice.
I do hope I have not stepped out of line by posting up the ‘Simple PCB repairs thread.
I have lost count of the number of Hotpoint/Indesit machines that I have either BER’ed or referred back to the Indesit Company for the ‘all lights flashing ‘ fault in the past two years.
To think I could have cured all or most of them with a 17p capacitor is at the very least frustrating.
I suppose that EMW & QER will not be happy but even a refurbed board at £40 is a bit steep in this instance.
PS. Martin must be on a long holiday. 😛

Re: The Martin Conumdrum
*Sigh* Missed all the fun again…. Should we respond to his claim that we Mods and Admins are just a bunch of school kids (Rather than Dan Dares, saving the Universe)?
