Re: Belling 315 BH (Creda Made)
I think you’e right about the thermal relay Goose, I’ve replaced a couple for odd grill faults.

Re: Electruepart
I’m glad you asked that 🙂
Having spoken to pretty much all the main wholesalers in depth over the last few months (apart from Maddocks although I (we – UK Whitegoods) do now have an account with them) it would appear that a lot of the traditional Connect customers are a little tired of their antics with pricing policies.
To be honest, with genuine spares unless the likes of Maddocks, Qualtex, Homespare and Masterpart source directly from the factory the prices won’t vary too much, they (the manufacturers) all have a set discount structure to wholesalers and won’t budge much under 45{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} apart from special offers.
Where the difference lies in genuine spares much of the time is the spares are sourced direct but the margin saved by doing so isn’t passed on to us, but that’s business to a certain degree as the outlay is much higher as quantities are enormous.
That said, and going back to my original paragraph, the traditional “smaller” wholesalers or more specialised such as Qualtex who were only traditionally really regarded as a pattern spares supplier are increasing their genuine stocks massively and will all be offering a more “one stop shop” solution…
Two reasons IMO:
1/ Connect taking the p**s with their arrogance and ridiculous pricing structure
2/ The possible demise of Washvac (Partcenter)
Please comment on the above 😀

Cheeky fecker 😆
I already said, when (eventually) I do get up there, and yes it it still going to happen just more slowly than I imagined – catch 22 etc 😉 that a window or at least a couple of skylights would need putting in.

Yep, agreed, which is why I deliberately haven’t been answering, much as I would like to have done, in case I get one tiny bit wrong the likes of Andy and Jeremy will jump on it 🙄

You can’t replace the seal, the pump is a sealed unit 😉
Pump part on it’s own is around £35 ex VAT and carriage, same contact details as previous 🙂

Re: Stoves 1200 DFa Range – Main oven door hinges
Oh, deep joy 🙂
Drop the door down, put two small rods (or screwdriver blades) through the bars that extend from the cabinet (spring loaded), slide the inner glass out, there’s two small plastic “stoppers”, you’ll see the heads just protuding past the left and right hand metal parts near the bottom, pull them out (tight fit but you should have new ones in the kit). Once they’re out, the door will slide off of the hinges (plastic foot attached to the bars that are now restricted from flying inside the cabinet).
Take the feet off, fit the new ones and reverse the above 😀
I hope that makes sense. If you want, PM me for my mobile and phone me from the house if you get stuck.

Thanks.

Re: Electruepart
Hitting “check price and availablity” will normally set the price on the DVD the same as the online price 🙂

Re: new indesit washer inst prob
It’s pure coincidence I think, the ball valve washer has probably failed in the loft cistern.
Plumber required 😉

Re: Stoves Handle
Masterpart recognise it actually now I’ve checked. No stock though so 5 weeks it is I think 🙁
Mind you, I’ve been waiting for a Belling one longer than that at the moment 😯
Dave.
Re: Stoves Handle
Where did that part number come from, it’s not recognised ? 😕
What’s the model number on the control panel (if it has one) ?
Dave.
