Re: indesit wia121
seen a couple of these where you cant reset program. this is board fault. EMW keep them in stock for next day delivery, and of course this keeps the price down, if its not the module you can send it back only costing you around £10.00. not too much of a gamble.
Re: ESL 624 leaks from door when washing
sounds like the door seals are fine and rarely cause problems if clean and visually look fine. the cause is more likely to be over filling (high water level). this is usually caused by being blocked in the pressure system. this job can be a bit more involved and dismantling required. if you attempt to have a look, unplug first.
Re: AEG U7101-4 – TOP OVEN WORKS BUT BOTTOM OVEN & CLOCK
most likely the timer unit as you need the clock working for the main oven to operate. you need to know if there is mains to the timer (take care with mains testing and if you haven’t got the correct knowledge and equipment to do this, leave it to a professional).
Re: Door seal spring loop replacement trick
4 hands are better than two, remove the door for easier access if needed. two people using one hand to hold spring in place and the other to stretch it working from top to bottom. this is the easy way, if your on your own your going to struggle. a block of wood cut to size to wedge from corner of cabinet to hold spring in place whilst you work around may also work. lots of swearing, sweat and aching hands, good luck.
Re: DWF416
you should check the reed switch in position when water is moving the flow impellor, this should rapidly switch the reed switch on and off. when you tested the reed switch did you pass a magnet past it to see if it was actually switching. theres a magnet on that impellor!. thats how the pcb knows theres movement. if all ok check connections and no breaks in those two slim wires back to the pcb.
Re: Bosch Dishwasher Problem
the grey box thingy is the inlet valve, as long as it fills with water it wont be that. as for no heat, and iam guessing the machine fills to level and the circulation pump is spraying the water around the system at a good pressure, the most likely fault for no heat is a dry solder joint on the circuit board (the bit behind the push buttons) or heater relay on that board. of coarse there other things like the element itself.
if you are going to look yourself, power off 🙂Re: hot and cold fill w/m
think your spending too much time trawling the internet for answers.
thanks anyway i wont bother showing the customer otherwise she will ask me to rigg something up.Re: hot and cold fill w/m
Cheers Don that’s what I thought believe it or not that’s what she has already and she doesn’t like it, of course there’s no heater to take it up to the boil .strange that no manufacturer has not kept one with hot fill.
Re: Can anyone tell me how old this is or where would i find
there are a few versions of this model but the earliest date i can see on the service manual is 26.11.2002, of course the one you are talking about my have been made much later depending how long production went on for. i may be able to find out more with the service number starting 8586………..
Re: Connect Prices
£38.91 to me, and iam supposed to be on best price on all manufacturers. strange how different price structures can be just a few pence or many pounds different.
Re: hotpoint wma drum bearings
why would you want to fit different bearings 😕 . if you did you would probably need a different drum support.
Re: metal in micro
yes you can put metal in m/w. (some are metal interior and have screws.)
most metal sufaces will deflect the microwaves, gold trim on plates etc will not. the easy rule is to say no metal. i did read up on all the technical bits years ago but forgot most of it now.
even foil the container is usually ok when heating a pie.Re: Whirlpool Top Loader
i think the new style is better but i have still seen them broken, as mentioned they are the weak point to stop any burn out (like a belt on a vacuum etc). any way its not a difficult job and a good little earner. not really a guarantee-able job, theres only one way to fit it and any tangled load would probably break it.
