Re: NEW W/DRYER PURCHASE

Yes always like Bosch.
Bit worried about Zanussi had a few boards go on them & the replacements are crazy money. Are the boards any cheaper on the new ones ❓
They have a fair review on Which though ❗
Like AEG also but l suppose they are just posh Zanussi’s ❓

Re: Beko drc568 cond drier

Just a stab in the dark but could it be the motor capacitor ❓
Take the top off and try turning the drum while pressing the start button. You may get lucky ❗

Re: ISE CI555

Well that caused an interesting debate.
I had no idea what other insurance companies were paying so I asked the question now l know. l also obviously realise that a job like this is balanced out by others like a heater or carbons change.
Concerning the amount of parts sent,
a couple of years after we started selling these machines l think it was the second one l’d sold, the motor brackets had broken off & the bearings were shot. l asked if a tub unit was available. It was. This time not knowing any different l ordered the same + a motor ( plastic insulation melted off armature ) + a door seal.What came was an inner drum called a ( drum unit ) a motor & a door seal. A breakdown in communication / terminology call it what you will.
I now realised that the w/m would be away from the customer at least 4 days longer than expected while waiting for the right parts to turn up so as a belt and braces action ordered anything else l may require so as not to cause any further delay.
l believe that the parts l’ve used ie: door seal, outer drum rear half including bearings, drum seal and motor were all nessesary. The other parts will be returned.
In hindsight the job could have been handled better but when jobs go wrong is’nt that often the case ❓
In 30 odd years l have never ripped anyone off l’m not about to start doing that now. My first thought allways is to the customer, how to get the w/m working quickly at the best price with a minimum of inconvenience.

Re: ISE CI555

l am bazza.

There is a lot of time involved here not only in repairing the machine but also in traveling costs increase in petrol price etc.

Is it fair to expect us to do jobs like this for £60 ❓

Re: Hoover Condenser Tumble Dryer

Been today, the buzzing was’nt from the top under the lid as the customer said.
It was the motor trying to start.
Ever tryed changing a capacitor on one of these ❓ What a********** job .

Re: Further to low water pressure

Martin.

Yes CI555WH

I think there are two filters in the cold supply line. 1 in the hose and 1 in the valve.

I’ii ask the customer to take one out and try it before making a trip into the countryside. Might help.

Thanks
