    Re: Vintage swanmaid dishwasher

    have not seen this model as i only saw the later models but very well built and lasted for years which is more than you can say of most modern appliances

    Re: Vintage swanmaid dishwasher

    wow thats a blast from the past remember the cast wash arm. these are built like a commercial washer of today with a seperate boiler tank underneath that heats up during wash

    saw a few not seen one for years
    last connection i had was a firm in birmingham that used to recon them and supply other catering appliances etc. they went into liquidation dont know if it ever restarted
    am now talking over 20 years ago

    Re: Indesit IWDC6105

    you can work out most interlock connections

    you need a meter and a plug and lead with 2 terminal to connect to lock

    use meter to find which terminals are the heater

    the one i have here is an old hoover one and the heater is terminals 1 and 3


    connect lead to these terminals and plug in
    when lock has powered slide lock mech till it locks

    unplug mains and using a meter fing out which two terminal are now short circuit
    with my lock its terms 3 and 2


    now on my lock your red wire will go on term 1
    after that the other 2 dont matter but only 1 way will work
    the red may supply a live or neutral to the lock to energise so as long as this wire is in the right position you wont blow the machine
    you say that one brown wire is live and the other is neutral but in actual fact one wire is live and the other is the switch wire that becomes live after the lock closes

    hope this helps

    Re: samsung BF641 fb xeu pcb

    just to add solutions to the above problem

    have got the oven going by repairing the old board

    inspected new board and found resistor R111 had blown

    sent board back to connect and ordered new board but was careful to order new board before sending old board back

    new board arrived this morning and R111 was blown on arrival. That means connect are sending out returned boards from customers that have fitted them wrongly

    am awaiting new board again as customer still want mod done to update oven hopefully this one will work

    Thanks for your help Bryan your info you supplied proved I had wiring correct despite almost complete colour changes

    moral keep an eye on connect when it comes to electronic parts

    Re: Beko DVC563aw main oven temp

    used to use the letter

    S.O.K.O.F

    this stood for

    “Set O.K. Operator Faulty” 😆

    i am reluctant to change it to cooker and oven does not sound to good either 😆

    seems to fit in this case

    Re: Beko DVC563aw main oven temp

    There you have said it. Seem to remember old cookers where +- 50 degrees but cant be sure
    anyway you get used to your cooker and over time as the stat goes out you change the way you cook without realising it
    If you take the 10{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} rule there could be up to 50 degrees difference but with an old stat this could be considerably more

    Re: diplomat dishwasher weird fault

    from what you are telling me it sounds like a programmer fault specifically the programmer power supply which is inside it
    this is just an educated guess

    Re: HELP with Prima Electric Fan oven – DIAL

    clockwise

    lamp only
    fan only ( i think not sure )
    fan and heat (ie main oven )
    grill

    grill will smoke a lot especially if not used for a while
    open windows if really bad and close kitchen doors

    turn on grill and wait till it starts to smoke. then turn grill off till smoke dies down. turn grill on till it smokes then turn off and so on
    if you just turn it on and dont turn it off it could go on fire
    After you have burnt it all off, using the grill on a regular basis will keep it down. the reason it happens is because the grill element is no being used while you are using the oven so fat from your cooking gets on it which burns off next time you switch it on


    hope this helps

    Re: Beko DVC563aw main oven temp

    i would not see that as excessive the only way you can get a more accurate temp measurement is to use electronics

    10{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} fluctuation would not make much difference to cooking. so if you customer finds it a problem they cant cook

    Why?

    have you changed the board and now its dead ?

    if this is your first visit. inspect boards for signs of damage. if no damage quote customer for repaired lower board and if agreed send BOTH boards to EMW. they will then repair which ever one is faulty and test them as a pair
