    Re: which slimline fridge freezer, washing machine, tumble d

    you could go budget on the tumble dryer. White Knight are a budget brand made in halifax. door are a bit flimsy but all in all a well built unit based on a 20 year old whirlpool design. in fact bosch used them to produce one of their models some time ago
    in my opinin will outlast both hotpoint and hoover anyday

    Re: Gas oven cant turn off

    some of the later ones do. you have to hold the knob in for 30 secs otherwise it just goes out again. if you cant smell gas you should be ok but beware of pushing the knob in by accident

    Re: Gas oven cant turn off

    dont know why it wont turn but you dont want to leave it on so you can do one of 2 things

    1 turn all the gas off but i guess that would leave you without heating
    2 if there is a flexible pipe feeding the cooker they normally can be disconnected. its a bayonet type of fitting. its self sealing so there will be no problem. after that you will either need to find a gas cooker engineer or replace the cooker

    Re: which slimline fridge freezer, washing machine, tumble d

    as you say you can go round in circles there are so may makes and types of machines to choose from but
    in my opinion things lie as follows
    top of the tree Miele good solid german engineering quiet and dependable
    second Bosch only problem is you have to avoid the budget models
    third Zanussi which also includes Aeg, tricity bendix and as far as i know john lewis own brand but again beware of the budget models

    the one thig for all these machines is should they fail t any time all the spares are available and in the case of miele they expect a long life so we can still get spares for machines over 1 years old

    hope it helps

    Re: Whirlpool 6th sense washing machine meltdown

    you have posted this in a tumble dryer help forum i am assuming you have posted in the wrong place or is it your title thats wrong

    also to help memebers it is advisable to post the model numbers so we know which machine you have

    Re: Indesit IWDD7143 Possible PCB Fault

    i doubt it

    if its an RCD thats tripping its sensing an earth fault. since the pcb is encased in plastic its not possible to touch earth

    most likely components to blow rcd are heaters and motor. check mains suprredor first. where flex come it disconnect internal wires and plug in to see if it trips. also try another socket or plug something else into the machines socket. long shot i know but have heard of engineers going round in circles with faulty sockets

    you will get a circuit diag of machine but not of the circuit board

    is this resistor in series with the mains supply coming into the board ?

    there should be a small 6.3A fuse on the pcb. its small and soldered into the board.

    Re: Zanussi zwd14581w1 washer dryer – dryer problem

    since the pump is used in both modes this fault does not make sense. i assume you have checked pump for overheating. there is thermel cutout in winding so will switch pump off till cools down
