I don’t think anyone was having a go at you as such. Reading through the thread though I don’t understand why you’d need such a detailed description of how to repair what, seems, a simple leak problem.

If you need clips, buy a selection. That’s what we have to do, especially for the Whirlpool machines as you need the thin ones or, you chance it with decent cable ties.

I can understand both sides of this as you obviously are unfamiliar with the machine and, I suspect, not confident in a good fix. The other side is that, when my engineers have asked questions to this level of detail you ask yourself, “do you want me to go and do the damn job for you as well?”.

I was taught that the only way to learn is the hard way with appliances and, often with new ones you encounter, that means you sit with it for a good while and work out the answer as, invariably, there is one.

But the guys have told you where to look as well as suggesting what part you need so I have to ask, other than one going and doing the job, what else can they offer? The only thing I can suggest you do is get the bits you know are busted then go work out how best to fit them and, that may well involve working it out as it looks as if there’s no shortcuts on this one.

And, asking the same question over and over will only irritate people, not encourage them to help you.

Before you ask, no I’ve no experience with this dishwasher, but it’s just a dishwasher like any other so it shouldn’t be too taxing to fix.

K. ken i was asking what type of hose clip do the other engineers use as the crimp type when squeezed out of shape would not make for a good repair. other engineers have asked similar type of questions. is it such a big deal to ask would a ordinary hose clip do. and you say chance it with decent cable ties is that hose not under pressure.

What is the point of this forum when you say sit and work it out. would it not be best to have a section on questions not to ask or dont bother with a forum. i thought the ukwhitegoods was all about helping each other out. to make the job as safe and as quick as possible so the message i am getting is be very careful what help you ask for only certain questions are allowed.

I was always told to ask questions. how do you learn if you dont ask questions. so the bottom line is this forum is not about sharing information in my opinion this forum is sending out a very mixed message.

I will watch and see if other engineers get the same slating for asking non tec questions 🙁 fasetester

Re: bf1620 hotpoint

i though that was what this forum was set up for helping engineers out. is their only a certain type of question that can be asked. i think you have a attitude problum r600a we cant all be know it all can we mr fridge man fasetester 😉

Re: bf1620 hotpoint

thanks martin for the reply does it come with seal and new hose clip. or would a standard screw hose clip do. do you need a special tool for the crimp hose clip. fasetester.

[fasetester]

Re: bf1620 hotpoint

thanks guys went back to dishwasher pipe that feeds top basket leaking. treads broke away from the pipe does the seals come with this pipe. the one on the big white nut where the basket pushes into looks a bit worn and the bottom connection that is connected to the heater is one of the crimp type hose clips can the be reused or would a screw type hose clip do fasetester. 🙂

Re: bf1620 hotpoint

thanks chris for your reply. dont think it is coming from the door if the pump is leaking can the o ring be replaced on its own. no water on the floor just in the base. any that i went to so far with flooded base never had to go back. went ok after the base was dried if it is a choked pressure chamber or what is a overflow turrent does it over flow when their is a blockage in the i w m s or tranfare pipes and if the main washer pump is leaking is there a seal kit for it thanks fasetester 🙂

[fasetester]

Re: bf1620 hotpoint

any one do the have a known leakage point. thanks fasetester 🙂

[fasetester]

Re: bf1620 hotpoint
