interesting one that… as far as im aware, they usually have a trigger stat for the cooling fan normally
a toc wouldnt normally allow the oven back on, it normally trips and stays tripped doesnt it?
id be looking more at the oven stat personally?
why do u think uve got a pcb problem?
tell us wot the problem is, and we’ll probably be able to advise better
set the clock, it needs to be set to manual for it to work
if he comes, and he finds that, he’ll charge you
read the bit in the handbook, about setting the clock
youve probably put the belt on the wrong side of the wheel
sounds about right, cos u havent mentioned how much of a pig the belt was to put back on
trust me, you do not need to adjust the tension of the belt, its so tight its untrue
remember its a tensioning pulley, so the belt needs to be PULLED over the pulley, not the pulley touching the belt, so the belt is over the part of the pulley you can see from the side of the machine
ive seen that before, people do it because they dont think the other way is possible!
if im right, you need to get some implent behind the belt ( i use an old belt) and pull the belt over the pulley, and please, be carefull, as theres still lots of sharp edges, and please make sure its unpluggedhope this helps, it probably wont need a belt
well, facts are facts
the haiers are rubbish, plain and simple
but
the merloni work by far keeps us in work, and probably will for a long time
8 out of 10 calls a day are merloni, and yes, comet are busy right now
brown goods seem dead, but white are flying.. and its stores who take on for the xmas rush, not service
we engineers are only human, we know what u guys think of us, and thats a shame
as you know, i do tell it as it is, i dont lie, im honest… comet will continue to act like a multimillion pound business run like a corner shop
the people at the top never lose their jobs, thet’ll pay some one £100,000 to save themselves £100,001, just so they can spare a quid… the only people to suffer are the people who actually make the money, not the ones who make the bad decisions
you guys know the score
a broken wire off the element wouldnt cause it to trip
it more than likeley needs an element to be honest
available from uk white goods at a good price
f05 – pressure switch jammed on full
pumps probably blocked, as always, with plug out, check filter/pump ( its at the bottom , at the front, under the kickplate!)
nope, the boards are quite often used on numerous machines, the eprom is the differnce…. the new board comes with a surface mounted chip holder for u to insert the new, programmed eprom
hotpoint fit a blank one, and program it from their laptop, but mere mortals arent allowed acces to it
and , no, unfortunately the eprom in your board wont fit the new board, cos its smaller , and yes, u can reffer to it as an eeprom if u like
hope this helps
regardless of whether the machine is on a spin, if the heater has an earth leak, it will trip the electric
the only way to be sure is to either disconnect it, or test it properly with a megger
if you choose to do either, make sure you unplug the machine before doing any work
theres only usually 4 reasons for blowing a fuse!
1 > broken wire somewhere (v v unlikely)
2 > wash heater down to earth
3> dryer heater down to earth
4 > motor down to earthlike i said, power off if investigating
