    Re: Oven went pop…

    if the light stays on so does the element.

    sounds like the pop has welded the stat contacts

    what I would like to know is why. you can look around the element connections to see if this oven has aluminium foil that may have touched the connections

    Re: Bosch Exxcel Check Water Light on

    not had one fail but a few point to note

    1 if anything jams the bar from either deck it wont turn

    2 if there are no dishes in the top deck it wont turn as easily as it needs the dishes to push against

    3 there is a valve in the heater unit that alternates the water between top and bottom decks so if you open the door and the unit is mostly feeding the bottom bar the top may not turn. if you listen to a wash you can hear a sound change as its washing

    assume you have checked both bars for debris

    would not surprise me. there is a move in the world to get everything made in china. all very well if quality control was there , but its not

    getting to the point now where I don’t trust pattern parts nor do I fully trust the gen ones either

    Re: oven doors tnat will not quite close tightly

    had a Neff last week where the receiver is at fault

    also had a Zanussi with receiver fault but managed to take them outside and straighten them with a hammer on the flag stones

    Re: Bosch Exxcel Check Water Light on

    no impellor miscount water in when it fails. causes check water light to come on and can cause overfill problems
    if it is filling slowly then the water valve may be at fault.

    if you run unit with left hand side off you can see what is going on.

    Re: Bosch Exxcel Check Water Light on

    a lot of problems with fill tend to stem from a device called an impeller jug

    go here

    http://www.bosch-home.co.uk/store/spareparts/search

    put in your E number

    select diagrams and go to page 5

    item in question is position number 0529

    its job is to count the water in

    other fill problems are involved with blockages in item 0418 on page 4

    Re: Miele W864 Nr 00/49952175 brushes

    if its the one I think it is

    take out soap draw and open door
    remove 3 screws from soap draw 2 left and 1 right
    remove 3 10mm bolts around door
    open filter cover and unclip drain spout
    the whole front of the machine will hinge out from left side (there is a metal clip at the bottom to unclip)
    you will see motor at bottom
    pull out plugs and remove 2 cover screws. with a bit of jiggery pokery you can unclip wire plastic rivet and get the cover off
    remove screws from brush gear unit and take off. (its plugged into field coil on both sides
    you can then change the brushes although you may have to use the old rubber holders
    to replace push brushes into holders till they lock
    carefully put unit back on motor making sure plugs line up
    when you have screwed it in place I use a very small allen key to push each brush towards the armature to release (you will hear a click )
    you can test at this point by plugging it back in. unit will work with front hinged out. select a spin prog. As soon as drum turns switch off for safety reasons
    if all well put it back together

    car108 are ok but you have to use old rubbers
