    Re: siltal refrigerator / freezer thermostat replacement

    The capillary tube passes through a plastic tube that ends at the rear of the evaporator. There is no further clips, claps etc to hold it in place. Mark up where the capillary goes into this tube then carefully draw it out (you may have to fully defrost as they sometimes get frozen within the tube) then mark the new capillary at the same length as the old one and refit to the same marking. Power off please before you start.

    Re: Hotpoint Iced Diamond Larder Fridge Model – UKNOWN –

    The plastic piece you refer to is to clamp the end of the thermostat sensor to the rear of the evaporator (metal plate). A universal thermostat from Ranco model VT9 or from Danfoss would do the job fine. Regarding the clicking, these are mechanical switches operated by the temperature on the metal plate, so sometimes it takes a few minutes for them to sense a change in temperature. These older fridges were designed to operate between +5 to +8C whilst the newer models operate between +2 to +5C. So to summarise, you need a good contact beween the sensor wire and the metal plate, have the right thermostat and have an operating temperature of around +5C

    Re: dishwasher salt lid – do i need it?

    You should always use salt in a dishwasher, it is used to flush the water softener out not used by the dishwasher in anyway during its wash cycle. Failure to do so will result in you having to replace the water softener module as some later stage which in your case is likely to cost more than the value of the appliance. 🙁

    Have adopted the same as Bryan – ie give me a breakdown of what we allegedly owe you and I will have a look at it. Also hit the same firewall as Alex but emailed them in the end.

    We are having to flog a package here – as Lawrence said above it makes more sense to give them a free stand the first time around and then charge them if they come again. As an example I have got Ebac coming who shortly will be producing a UK built washing machine and will need engineers to service them. Thats a double hitter

    Jane,

    Why do you not contact the manufacturer and ask them which to use??
