Re: bosch dryer 3204gb
Did you get a fix for this one electrofix? I’ve got the identical model (WTA3204/GB09 Fd 8306) with exactly the same problem namely it only powers the heater in the anticlock direction and the drum brush contacts appear healthy.
If anyone else has come across this i’d be pleased to know the outcome.

Welcome to the joys of a white goods engineer!!! 😆
Re: Creda T622CW Spins Slowly
To be perfectly honest I haven’t the foggiest idea where the problem is, and could only find it by use of a multimeter and circuit diagram……
Re: Fridge Thermostat for Scandinova 7054 Fridge/freezer
The problem is you’ve connected the new stat up the same way as the old one! Ranco stats have a different numbering system (really helpful)…the live feed should connect to 6, the compressor to 4 and the common on 3. If you look in the box that the new stat came in, often there is a wiring diagram for reference?
Once again, plug out before doing anything :zap:
Re: Creda T622CW Spins Slowly
I presume this is the same machine as your other thread?
Just as Penguin45 suggested, the most likely is you’ve incorrectly wired the new timer.
Other than that then it’s time for professional help i’m afraid. Click the link below to see if there’s a repairer near you.
Re: smeg dwi 710e1
What actually is the problem with the dishwasher? i.e. what does is do or not do?
Re: SMEG DWI 710
I wonder if the pressure switch isn’t cutting in, and after a default time it stops the fill and switches on the drain pump for a set period which is not long enough to empty the now over-full machine?
If thats the case then the fill matrix must be blocked or the pressure switch itself (or associated wiring) faulty, or possibly even the pcb controller.
Power off if investigating yourself or if you need professional help you could try the Repairs@ link below.

You need to identify the live supply connection to the stat, and the wire from it that feeds the compressor then link the two together. This you will need a meter for so if that is beyond you then it’s time for professional help i’m afraid.
Unplug before doing anything of course. :zap:
Re: integrated diplomat
First thing you might like to check is the inlet filter (turn off water, disconnect fill hose, pull out small gauze filter and clean)
Many times i have seen these get blocked immediately after plumbing work which has disturbed all the crud in the piping.
Re: Big Brother yet again
Well it looks like we’re to get a personal email from Blair (yeah right) explaining why we should pay more tax and how data collected will not be used to give us speeding tickets and track our whereabouts. (despite the fact that this information WILL be collected)
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/a … 381521.ece
I suspect that only a small proportion will bother to reply to it because they don’t believe it will have any effect or they disbelieve Blair anyway, and of course the government will then say that once they had explained the policy correctly the number of objections dropped dramatically 👿
I don’t think we as engineers fully appreciate the monetary cost this could be to us…instead of an annual tax disc we could be paying 3, 4 or five times the amount on a road pricing scheme by virtue of the mileage we have to drive in the course of earning an honest living 😯
Re: Diplomat ADP8332 hose.
Had this problem too but found the only cure was a replacement pump 😥
Re: Help on my Hotpoint
The letter at the end of the model number is simply the colour variant (in your case ‘p’ is for polar white)
One of the fill valves is faulty and will need replacing…to find out which you need to disconnect the black hoses from the valves inside the machine and see which one is dribbling water in.
As far as the machine not turning on straightaway it will almost certainly be the door lock, the only way to confirm this other than replacement is with a meter.
Power off if investigating :zap:
Re: Thermostat replacement
Tricky one potentially…a way of checking the cooling system itself is to bypass the stat for a few hours…the fridge should get really cold. If it does then the stat is faulty.
….and yes the bare wire (actually the stat capillary) will just pull out of the sleeve.Re: Fridge Thermostat for Scandinova 7054 Fridge/freezer
The stat can be checked with a meter by checking for continuity between terminals 3 and 4 when in the ‘on’ position. Being a Danfoss stat the only number on it will be a long one OB*********** but these are simply known as a kit 3 stat.
Have a look at Shop@ for a replacement, if no luck then an email to Dave_Conway on spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk will sort it.
Alternative stat that will do the job is a Ranco K59 but it needs a longer capillary rather than the standard one (VT93 rather than VT9 IIRC?)
