    Re: Bosch SMI6022GB/03 Dishwasher overfill

    No probs….as an after thought, i’ve seen a few with the harness broken in the door….the feed wires to the float are a common suspect there. Also a leaking rinse-aid dispenser can get to the wiring where it touches it, or may be just a plain old knackered float switch?

    You may want to have a look at the timer motor….if its really old then sometimes its just the drive cog on the end of the timer motor which moves along the shaft and no longer makes contact with its neighbour. (carefull tapping back will cure)

    The system works by supplying the timer motor when the float is in the ‘cocked’ position….the tank is a fixed volume, its overflow a fixed diameter so therefore the tank will drain at a fixed rate i.e. the same length of time each time it drains. Three times that time is enough to step the timer on to the next stage, so the timer rolls on just before the third tankfull finishes going in giving the correct volume of water in the tub.

    Dave.

    Yes, it does indeed come with it along with new jubilees to fit it, and a bung or two for holes in the chamber that may not be required. It also includes a couple of new clips for the clear softener feed hose that runs underneath.

    All in all not too bad a job….just be a little careful about deciding where to cut the old chamber off.

    Hi Laurence

    It might be the time of year/weather causing the problem just like we see on cooker elements….build up of condensation within the element from high humidity and large ambient temperature changes/high humidity (warehouse to customer).

    I suspect that if the element is heated for a time without the protection of an earth trip the problem will go away?

    There are so many options these days, patches, inhalers, gum and even a drug called Zyban, not to mention support groups at your local health centre.

    The best bit is most of it is available free on the NHS! 😉

    Its unlikely to be the pump at fault, more likely there is a partial blockage in the water inlet system.

    This is rarely serious and an easy fix for an engineer.

    If you require one then have a look in Repairs@ to see if there’s someone local to you?

    You have a faulty hinge there, the only cure is to replace both as a pair.

    The usual cause of hinge failure is excessive weight being placed on the open door, the leverage at the hinge end of the door can be enormous 😉

    If you need an engineer then have a look at repairs@ to find someone near you.

    I suspect most manufacturers would gladly find any excuse not to spend money…the fact that the machine is in a restaurant rather than a domestic dwelling makes that an easy call for them.
    I did have one tricky one a few years ago when visiting a domestic house to repair a microwave under guarrantee…the machine was absolutely knackered at 8 months old.
    After a bit of carefull questioning it transpired the lady of the house had a very profitable sideline….
    “I love walking in the countryside….” she said “…it’s great, I pick any old weed as long as the flower looks pretty, nuke it for about 5 mins in the microwave until its bone dry then add a little scented oil.”
    At that point I noticed the dozens of bags of pot pourri stacked high on the worktop….each with a £2.95 price tag on them! 😉

    In an uncharacteristic piece of foresight I made a note of the dimensions 😆 and lo and behold an ELE8839 from Connect will fit!

    Needless to say it’s a slightly different price 😉

    Re: play in belling oven door

    ….but do check the bottom of the main door frame where the pin goes through the hinge, if there is a lot of wear to the holes then the door will never close up tight. This part is also obsolete too.
    I do have a quantity of the hinges mod kits still so let me know if you need one?
