    Re: Hotpoint FF187E PL module to set up

    Not done a top mounted module one yeat but have done several of the rear mounted types which do not need the low end adaptor.
    If you buy a used low end adaptor, bare in mind that it must be marked “2007” as the older version will not work, a lot of us bought the original version which is next to useless these days.
    You should have instructions about programming either with your smart card reader or with the new pcb. Not had any problems doing one of these yet but the green light that is supposed to indicate a succesful install has never come on (IIRC) although the appliances have worked ok.

    I forgot to say,the one i refitted also had a dryer on top,which stayed there and perhaps i will make this clear as well …..the front of the machine was NOT removed either.

    😆 1607’s are as new to me as they are to everyone else and the old asko had simple straight peices that never fell off.

    As I said, the rubber is way smaller that the bit it fits on so it HAS to be strecthed on, hasnt it? and why did it come off in the first place? What with the drier on top I thought better to wait for new part before getting too involved. Will update you and you still have not explained how it would cause a leak!

    Re: Oven cleaning firms causing problems to engineers?

    I have been presented with a smeg door in pieces as a cleaner had taken it apart and was unable to get it back together and its surprising how many failed fan elements I get that have blown just after it being cleaned.
    I have also been blamed for a noisy fan after I changed an element but discovered on my return (free hence wasted!) visit that they got a cleaner out to it immediatly after my visit who had bent to fan blades in so much that it was barely able to turn, no way was it like that when I tested it.

    Re: Hotpoint WD71 dry heater change

    did this yesterday and you are right Jim, the insulation is folded under the heater box so can be removed in one piece. Just a lot of dissmantling to access something that is stareing you in the face when the top is removed……not that I will ever probably change another but a stanley knife and 2 metal tie wraps are very tempting.

    Re: 1607w rubber lip thing around door

    confused dot com here as well. Yes Jim, I am taking about the white/grey rubber that just seals the gap between cabinet and drum, not a water seal there at all.
    I tried to stretch it back on, (with the front in situ) but couldnt, possible could with front removed but then wondered why it came off in the first place so ordered a new one just to be sure,will return next week to fit. (tumble drier on top and Cambridge city centre, jeez!)

    Re: Is it worth it?

    Yes and no.
    There are some great refrigeration jobs out there and the diyer is less likely to get involved himself. Some of the “American” jobs are well worth taking as you can charge a lot more to do them and a lot are simple faults, would give the Samsungs a miss though!
    There is however an awful lot of BER jobs out there and seemingly endless frost free defrosting problems that you can never be 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} certain you have fixed-or can even be fixed. These will depress you to the point of giving up altogether.
    By “trained up” I guess you mean system work, this has dropped away a lot in the past couple of years. Re-couping your outlay on training and equipment will not be easy.

    Re: Teka intergrated dishwasher

    you need to do the reset procedure:
    (am doing this from memory, have posted this many times if you want to search)

    with door open, switch on the power switch and within 5 seconds (ie before any of the leds light up), push the program button 4 times. You should now have a light on (or flashing) at either end, if not then switch off and try again until you do.

    Once you have the 2 lights on, then press the programme button once more and one of the lights should go out, you should now have only the one light on.
    switch off the machine to save setting.
    Should then be back to normal, if not try it once more.

    Re: HELP! any BSH guys out there?

    well, it doesnt fit Martin, although it may fit in the door, the actuator of the door lock is in a completely different place. Lets hope they are going to be regular breakers though as now I have 2 in stock and a customer on the warpath to BSH!
