Re: Bosch integrated f/f

Hi
Due to the age, compressor or low refrigerant wouldn’t un heard of and the symptoms are swaying me that way.
Ask them if its running a lot of the time and ice formation is contained to top of fridge evaporator also on the condensor pipes on the rear you would expect an even heat along the tops of the pipework.

That would be un-ethical as it is under manufacturers warranty, sorry.

Just to clarify matters, despite having just wasted the best part of a day’s holiday waiting for the 5-minute visit I was perfectly polite to the engineer – I didn’t have a problem with him, but I did have a big problem with the lack of support he has from his employer (not Maytag but an independent service company) who send him out on a job without appropriate spares and without appropriate test equipment. I have just had to deal with a frustrating 9 sperate visits to service a recurring fault on a brand new boiler over the past 6 months, and I wanted to pre-empt the same scenario developing with my new fridge. Rather than vent my frustration at the engineer I did it via my post instead, which doesn’t read too well in retrospect. My apologies.

I see, apology accepted. Sometimes major manufacturers do use independant engineers, but they work for a variety of other manufacturers aswell hence the lack of spares. I won’t bore you with the ins and outs but if they had to stock a van with one manufacturer you would need and artic also the spares are not given free so that would be money tied up, so only a basic stock is kept onboard.

I take it your advice is wait and see?

I know its frustrating, think how we feel. We only get paid on completion of job and its one payment so if we get it wrong we have to go back on return visits free gratis 😥

Greg

Subject: Too much information in Public Forum

Hi
Im sorry but I had to remove your post in the Cooking Forum.
The information was too indepth and we as Trade Members on here are not allowed to give a blow by blow account of how to fix an appliance.
It also leaves you exposed to being sued if anybody else of less capability reads the forum and injures themselves.

Regards

Re: Maytag (Admiral) GC2224GEKB ice-maker not working – fuse

Hi
Its a shame you don’t say what area you are in because if I was that engineer I would be doing one of two things –

1/Reporting your tamperings to the office thus invalidating your guarantee.
2/ Refusing to call on your address again for the sheer rudeness and contempt you have shown towards him.

Most major manufacturers know their machine inside out and have seen the same faults day in day out that they use the knowledge and experienced gleaned over their working years and can assume certain parts that may be the cause.

Hi
Purely from a safety aspect, I wouldn’t be modifying any appliance. There will be reasons why you are experiencing this symptom.

With the appliance un-plugged, I would check the motor brushes incase they have worn sufficiently to interfere with the pre-spin or distribution cycle and thus causing the load to become unbalanced or you may have a module,suspension or overloading fault.

If in any doubt of your ability please feel free to use the engineer link below.
