Re: What’s in a brand?
We do a lot of work on under counter double ovens for differrent manufacturers and the customer always says the same things: ovens too small and take ages to heat up. The latter due to low wattage fan elements, open the door and it takes ages to recover temperature. Its handy to have the seperate grill but for serious cooking a normal single multifunction under counter oven is far better or re design and get a full size double oven in the wall or a range freestanding cooker.
What I said earlier about the parts of the oven being identical was done by comparing part part numbers and they were all the same.
Re: newest model Neff and Bosch dishwashers-beware
My previous attempt at fixing surface mount ended up being slung across the workshop floor in a fit of rage 👿 Might be time to try again though. Thanks for the input Andy.
Re: Hotpoint DWF30
I reckon someone here could post Bosch [art numbers for those and I bet they are cheaper. Dont forget QER.

Got a part number for that Jimbo? We end up re using heaters and can be a bit of a pain.

its is fair to say that the materials used on this machine are cheap looking.Could be a lot worse Graham, at least its a Bosch design. You have obviously not yet worked on a DWF50. ❗
Need to check you are getting 240v to the module, is so its a duff one. There is a version 1 and a version 2 of this one.
PS whatever you do dont ask Martin about it!

Re: newest model Neff and Bosch dishwashers-beware
When I replace that pump (and board 😥 ) next week I will take the damn thing apart to see whats gone on. Its a bit worrying that a blocked pump could lead to this sort of expensive repair.
Re: Weeeman
Finaly got time to go visit Weeman today. Shame i forgot my camera but if anyone is in the area it is worth seeing even if only just to identify some of the stuff used such as the Zanussi FL and Indesit 862, several inner drums, and several of James Dysons cleaners. Computer mice as teeth is a good feature as is the washing machine fill hoses as nerves and veins.
Interestingly underneath is some scatterred fridges and a Bosch dishwasher which may be part of the piece or may just be some dumped WEE.Re: newest model Neff and Bosch dishwashers-beware

But pretty much the same as all the Bosch/neff plastic base models these days.
Re: Neff 6544wm
Thanks sparkey, I did try a search at BSH but all the numbers were rejected and the staff on the phone didnt want to know.

Point to bear in mind here was “label”. Bosch haven’t been using labels for at least 8 years – engraving to the door inner top was the way. So – we can reasonably assume that Laurence with a U’s machine is an earlier model.Cheers,
Chris.With That style heater? Has it been around that long?
Re: Siemens D/Washer Identification Label Scrubbed Off
Hey Penguin, you were doing right all along ❗
I am still gonna do it the upright way, surely cleaning up the mess left has to take longer and the risk of water getting on the timer pcb is too much of a risk to take. + we can leave the hoses in situ (assuming they are long enough to get the thing out anyhow) which I dont think can be the case if upending the thing.
Re: Carriage charges for spares delivery
my biggest gripe regarding carriage charges is with MFI, even for their warranty jobs we have to pay £4.90 regardless of the amount and we cannot keep floating orders for too long as we get a complaint fax if a customer kicks up a fuss. We do make a small mark up on theparts but this is easily swallowed up by carriage charges.
As for SEME yes it is only £12, whats more you can order up to 5pm and still get your box the next day.Re: Siemens D/Washer Identification Label Scrubbed Off
careful at guessing at those heaters as some of them have turbidity sensors and motorised valves, others dont have any of these. Are you sure that model number has scrubbed off? They are usually on the stainless part of the top of the door and are pretty durable. Sometimes you just have to get in the right light to read them.
