    i must admit i havent seen that at all

    and i see a lot of them

    they tend to discolour if the front seal comes off, but never seen one melt

    ideally, they should never overheat to the point they melt the plastic, as there’s the toc on the heater , and a duct stat

    but, as always, its merloni we’re talking about

    depends on the model

    burn out is a term i dont like, yes they go o/c, and it isnt common, worth checking before you go down the expensive pcb route

    if your confident of testing at board level (plug out of course) it may be just a dry joint

    lol, dont take all this to heart… weve all detracted from the original post, and at leat the machines working at the mo, and will probably require a pcb and eprom at some stage, its a sticky heater relay

    take care

    so your car was requiring a part after 4 years? and if the part wasnt fitted, it wasnt fit for use on a public road

    NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE

    id be going back to the car dealer and demand a new vehicle, compensation for the hassle, id be on the net posting on every car forum i could find

    people do it for £100 fridges, why not for a £22,000 car?

    you all taking my point yet?

    possibly, it could be the mains filter

    its at the back, where the cable goes in the machine

    plug out if investigating
    after that, its on/off switch then pcb

    hope this helps

    your 21 years too late with your insult

    ill say it again, your basing your comment on something you do not know

    u dont know what the fault is, so how can u say its common?if a fridge is not getting cold, then yes its faulty, but other makes go faulty as well, not being cold in a fridge is the ONLY fault youd get

    AND, since someones told you it might be a thermostat problem suggests that that person knows very little about that appliance, since its digital, and doesnt actually have a thermostat

    i stand by my original statement… what you said made bad reading, the samsung consumer brigade do it all the time, stating things that plainly arent right, based on what they read on a handfull of posts

    this site is very helpful, you’ll find that people will missenterprate what you type

    maybe if youd just asked the question, you may well have got a much better structured response

    regardless off all that, i will ask you one thing, because, despite your perception of my post, im only trying to be helpful

    when you open the freezer door, does it seem overly warm around the outside edges of the freezer?

    could be your answer……..

    and you wont buy a comparable machine for ‘135 quid’

    but then, what would i know?

    yup nearly all machines have electronic controls

    here go the consumer rights brigade

    want 5 years warranty on a £151 machine, but quite happy to pay £500+ to put a £25,000 car through an mot after 3 years

    is it really that hard to be realistic?

    common?

    and you base this theory on?

    since you dont have a scooby doo what the problem actually is how can u assume its common?

    honestly…..

    take off the kickstrip at the front and clean it out….. thats probably your answer

    adam

    some grills require the door to be closed, depends on make and model

    no, there wouldnt be a thermostat capable of switching the GAS off if it overheated, at most, the grill will always stay at the temperature you set it at , door closed or not.gas grills rarely work on a thermostat, normally, its just an open valve, with the gas lit, its that simple

    glasses on ovens do shatter, its fact, and sometimes for no reason at all

    although, if you ask traders/landlords… ovens.hobs.fridges etc, that are supplied to them are generally not respected or looked after at all

    which is why most people stop supplying them.. people tend to look after stuff better if they paid for it, its that simple

    difficult positon to be in, but the general consencus would be misuse, and pure ignorance by the tennant

    and no, doors dont just ‘fall off’, they all need some sort of effort to remove, sounds to me like theyve been over-physical, or dropped something on it

    good luck, your gonna need it…….

    model number would be helpfull if you would like to try and get a replacement, as hygena ovens are generally mfi branded machines

    ok, so if its under somekind of a warranty, and its unrepairable, there should be a contribution form the guarantor towards a replacement

    im sure you wont be out of pocket

    id be more inclined to scrap it… it is a merloni machine after all
