    Tis true .I can remember replacing elements in russell hobbs kettles! And I remember my friends who had a TV repair shop repairing video recorders. Not good this is it I’ve a feeling our industry is to follow . 🙁

    Check that the vent on the outside of the house wall isn’t blocked and that the hose isnt crushed in any way.

    but if the fans running and your sure it is then firstly check the electrical flap at the the top of the fridge is open if it is then it can only be the defrost element or cut outs at fault.

    Re: Beko WMA 765S – How to remove door seal inner retain spr

    You replace the seal through the door aperture you do not need to take front off or tip machine back nor remove the worktop. where the rubber meets the drum peel back the seal to reveal the tub I normally do this by the door seal drain holes at the bottom then place your fingers next to the tub and press down hard then pull seal towards you .Getting a seal off on one of these takes me less then 30 seconds but its getting the door seal and the inner retaining spring back on thats the fun part

    E52 is a motor fault. If you have removed all four screws then it will slide off with somehelp from a flatblade screwdriver . Most likely to be the brushes on the motor

    Re: Zanussi DE6965 error code AL7

    Its true that all dishwashers have a side tank but the IWMS was a particular problem due too it complex design even the main motor which also is the drain pump when it reverses was a disaster the model range underwent various modifications too no avail and in the end the electrolux group (who own the zanussi brand) ditched the design altogether and returned to a traditional design which is ten times better .So my advice is really just do what electrolux did and ditch it im surprised it has lasted this long. The latest zanussi I would now recomend and most german brands (AEG dishwashers are zanussi with a higher spec ). Avoid like the plague the cheaper ones for example kenwood and the “managers special buy” at the front of the store ❗

    Re: Zanussi DE6965 error code AL7

    It does seem the main motor water seal has worn resulting in the motor seizing so it would require a new motor however this model has the imfamous IWMS water side tank which was a common failure so if you replace the motor Id guess that would be next so I would not bother repairing it

    Thats the pressure sensor at fault but check the rubber hose isnt split or blocked first.

    Re: AEG Santo S 75400 KG Fridge/Freezer

    Not as simple as that as it dosent have a thermostat on this model. It could be anything from an ice build up jamming the fan or the defrost element is o/c or the cut outs are o/c or the elctronic control and n.t.c’s are at fault finally you could have a system fault so I would suggest you call in engineer who would know what to look for.
