ModeratorRe: Indy WE16S mark3 board. Which is heater relay?
cant you buzz the wires with a multimeter to find relay
one side of relay will go direct to heater other side of relay willl be direct live or neutral

ModeratorRe: Microwave Question
to be honest i would do it the dangerous way
this will only work on old transformered units not invertor types
diconnect mag turn on for about 5 secs
turn off and unplug (for safety and to remove earth return)
short cap to earth and see if you get a big spark (using a well insulated screwdriver )
if you do all hv ok just mag down
you have to be careful but no more dangerous than opening an unknown microwave and having to discharge for safety
hope this helpsDave

ModeratorRe: 60hz pump
thanks for reply
have tried 50hz pump
the old type shaded pole motor pumps are ok but the new synchronous type will not start would try and find old type of pump but am not sure pcb components will take extra load and inductance
Dave
this is a problem on ships nowhere else would you get a 60hz 240v supply they have got to be awkward

ModeratorRe: creda 48319
most top oven have the switch section for the grill elements and a lot of them have a different temp scale so if you swop temps may not line up
the next question is why you need to know both seem to be available

ModeratorRe: Weird Hotpoint WMA fault???
had a zanussi come up with a similar fault in my case was condensation on motor but carbon dust or and fault to earth might cause it
theory is if motor is neutral switched a short to earth will seem like a shorted triac
hope this helps

ModeratorRe: what a joke
this firm is local to us and will make grill elements while you wait
maybe worth a ring to see if they will do a postal service

ModeratorRe: Hotpoint Drum Paddles/Lifters
if you look at thr mk2 lifter turn it over and inspect the lugs that lock it into place
mk 2 lugs are squared off
mk3 has a 45 degree angle i assume to try and deflect items like coins to try and stop failure
apart from that never tried to cross fit

ModeratorRe: Connect Distribution/Merloni spares
had the rep in from electrue and decided to open account
was not happy giving my home address as i consider this to be private and i have been here for 30 years but bye the bye i did and he sent off the paperwork
it came back about a week later with a request for a direct debit mandate on my account. now this to me is a non starter giving a supplier access to your account to tase money when they feel like it even if you consider some invoices in dispute
i was not in a good mood that morn but when i got this letter i phoned the rep and took it out on his answerphone i still want to know why he did not tell me about this and if he did not know why he works for the shower of idiots i would not have applied for the account on these terms
